Hello,

We are pleased to announce that the source code for a new boundary condition as been released on the openfoam-extend Subversion site on SourceForge.net.

The boundary condition profile1DfixedValue implements a cylindrical boundary condition field defined by a 1D fixed value profile (radial or vertical) for a typical RANS k-epsilon computation (eg. simpleFoam, turbFoam, etc). The profile data is read from a separate CSV (Comma Separated Value) file similar to files generated by Ansys CFX.

This boundary condition is available on openfoam-extend through a new library called OpenFoamTurbo.

That library will regroup many new developments made by the Turbomachinery Special Interest Group related to the application of OpenFOAM for TurboMachinery simulations.

The ERCOFTAC simulation case documented on the Wiki (namely Case0) is a good test case for playing with the new profile1DfixedValue BC.

The source code is documented extensively, and we plan to add some more documentation on the TurboWG section of the Wiki as we go.

See the following URL for more details:
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Si...e_next_meeting

Here is the URL for downloading this new source code:

Enjoy.

Hi Hydro-Quebec-Team,

I have some trouble to compile the library. I get this error for version 1.5.x and 1.5-dev:

Does anyone have a suggestion, what I am missing!?

Hi Fabian,

The files you are having problem with was posted by boroli (Borm Oliver), not the Hydro-Quebec-Team (see the author at http://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefor...ields/derived/). If you only want to use the profile1DFixedValue boundary condition, please check out revision 1167 of that library, using the command:
svn co -r 1167 https://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefo...OpenFoamTurbo/
This revision is the one just before boroli added some stuff. Revision 1167 works nicely for me, but for the latest revision I get the same error as you do.

Oliver Borm, can you please make sure that your added files work so that people don't run into problems when compiling libOpenFOAMTurbo? Otherwise we must revert the library to 1167.

Håkan.

Thanks Hakan, it works.

Hello Fabian,

Basically, Oliver Borm's BCs source code is dependant on a modification that Hrv introduce for Oliver at revision 1233.

So currently, in order to get libOpenFOAMTurbo to compile correctly, you either need to upgrade your 1.5-dev installation to at least revision 1233, or you need to follow Håkan's instructions and move your OpenFOAMTurbo version down to revision 1167.

And obviously, you need to stay at revision 1167 for your OpenFOAMTurbo package if you you want to compile for 1.5.x.

We are currently discussing on the best ways to address and prevent this kind of problems.

We try our best to keep OpenFOAMTurbo compatible with both 1.5-dev and 1.5.x releases. We will make the necessary adjustments.

Thank you for your patience.

Martin

Hi,

The compilation of the additional boundary conditions by Oliver Borm has temporarily been disabled so that people won't run into compilation problems with libOpenFOAMTurbo.

Hello,

I have installed foam-extend 3.1 and openFoam 2.3.0 on ubuntu 14.4.

As I wanted to run ERCOFTAC centrifugal pump case, I tried to install OpenFoamTurbo library. As this library was not compiling with foam-extend 3.1 (because of wmake errors), i compiled with openFoam 2.3.0 and it worked. Now problem is how can I link libOpenFoamTurbo.so, as it is installed in OpenFoam 2.3.0 directory and not in foam-extend 3.1.

So can any one tell me either how can I associate the same file with foam-extend 3.1 or in which directory of foam-extend 3.1 I should copy this?

I put libOpenFoamTurbo.so in $FOAM_USER_LIBBIN location as mentioned in http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Si..._OpenFoamTurbo.

However, when I try to run MRFSimpleFoam, I get the error as

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: 

    Cannot find 'value' entry on patch INLET of field U in file "/home/purvic/foam/purvic-3.1/run/ECPGgi2D/ECPGgi2D/0/U"
    which is required to set the values of the generic patch field.
    (Actual type profile1DfixedValue)

    Please add the 'value' entry to the write function of the user-defined boundary-condition
    or link the boundary-condition into libfoamUtil.so
