Hi all !
I'm new to OpenFOAM and I'm trying to use the cylindricalInletVelocity boundary condition to specify the swirl flow in the tube.

inlet
{
type cylindricalInletVelocity;
axis (0 0 1);
centre (0 0 0);
axialVelocity 0.1;
rpm 6;
radialVelocity 0;
value uniform (0 0 0);
}

but I get the error below

// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //
Create time

Create mesh for time = 0

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey galogen,..

i got the same problem.

Have you found any solutions for the problem up to now?

Hi!

have you guys tried to change the input values?

{
        type            cylindricalInletVelocity;
        axis            (0 0 1);
        centre          (0 0 0);
        axialVelocity   0.1;
        rpm             6;
        radialVelocity  0;
        value           uniform (0 0 0);
    }

plus, there's no point in using this BC if you're setting the radialVelocity to 0??

also make sure everything follows the RHR so you won't get problems with signs, and ensure your centre and axis are properly positioned

GL!

hi calim

i changed the input values but i get always the same error. this is my Ua inlet code. the solver is bubbleFoam.

inlet                    
    {
    type            cylindricalInletVelocity;
    axis        (0 1 0);
    centre        (-0.14015 0.28175 0.135);
    axialVelocity    0;
    rpm        0;
    radialVelocity    0.24;
    value           uniform (0 0 0);
    }

im not sure about the centre vector... but i get the same error while set the vector to (0 0 0)

Hi Axel. I still can't solve this problem. So while I don't need to set radial velocity I use
swirlFlowRateInletVelocity. If you find somthing, please post it.

Hi Calim,

Do you know what does it mean:

"attempted copy of a deallocated temporary" ?

Did you tried to use this BC? If it worked, could you post the example of working BC settings?

[AxelB]

hi

i solved my problem with another patch type.

my task was ist, to realize only a radial flow out of e cylindric patch. virtually a normal velocity to the patch surface.

i realized it with the following type

    inlet
    {
    type            surfaceNormalFixedValue;
    refValue          uniform -0.24;
    }

by trying it out and searching through the forums i guess it might be actually a BUG (cylindricalvelocityinlet)! unfortunately i do not have the time to dig deeper.. i've tried a few changes but i got the same error.;. if i find sth new i'll let you know..

ty and sry

[galogen]

Yes, it's really looks like BUG. So thanks you Axel and Calim for your answers and your time!

Best wishes!

hi all
anybody find a solution for cylindricalInletVelocity?
It doesn't work at all!!!!!!

it apears in the terminal:

Hello everybody,

I have the same problem, did you find something interesting ?

Best regards.
