Hi all,

I am working on flow past cylinder simulations in OpenFOAM. The first case that we did was with simple velocity field i.e. in 0/U file velocity boundary condition was

boundaryField
{
inlet
{
type fixedValue;
value uniform (1 0 0);
}
.
.
.
}

The next case was with oscillating velocity field i.e. in 0/U file velocity boundary condition was

inlet
{
type oscillatingFixedValue;
amplitude 0.5;
frequency 0.2;
refValue uniform (0 1 0);
}

Now I have to combine these two conditions. My velocity field should be something like V= a*i + b*sin(c)*j ; where i and j are unit vectors in x and y directions respectively.

Could someone please help me out by telling the proper way to do this.

Thanks in advance!

Use groovyBC and set your own function for U
