Hi friend,

I have a trouble which I want to modify the U. I mean I want to keep the initial U to a new variable and after solver, I like to add this quatity to U again. But there are some errors. Could you please help me.

volScalarField Uin = UEqn.A();
...
U += Uin;

Errors:

icoFoam.C:120: error: no match for ˜operator+=U in ˜U += Uin"

In your code:

volScalarField Uin = ...


in createFields.H:

volVectorField U(..)

You are trying to assign one (field of scalars) to the other (field of vectors)?

Hi Mattijs Janssens:

Thanks. I mean that I want to keep my initial U to Uin and then add this Uin to new U (after end of the iteration). But the U is the vector. So I am not sure where define them and how to operating. Could you please give some help?

Thanks a lot.
