Hi everyone! Im trying to compile a source term which uses grad(U) for the force calculation in OpenFOAM 2.4.0. For some reason the following line does not work:


Code:
volTensorField gradU = fvc::grad(U);
I saw several posts where this line is valid but when i try to compile the following error appears:


Code:
error: no matching function for call to ‘grad(const vectorField&)’
 volTensorField gradU = fvc::grad(U);

Hi

The error occurs because the "U" used in your code is a vectorField.


NOTE: How to convert vectorField to volVectorField

NOTE: difference volVectorField and vectorField
