Errata in example problem published on OpenFOAMwiki

Hi,

I am unsure whether I should post this thread in this section, but I noticed an error in an example problem posted at:

HTML Code:

http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Main_ContribExamples/ExampleSimple2DFlow

The downloaded file "Simple2DFlow.tgz" has an error in /system/fvSchemes

In line 44-46 it should be

Code:

laplacian((1|A(U)),p) Gauss linear corrected;

and NOT

Code:

laplacian(1|A(U),p) Gauss linear corrected;

Or you'll end up getting an "Undefined Laplacian scheme error".

Hope this is fixed soon!

Cheers!:)

That is a syntax-change that occurred some versions of OpenFOAM ago. I'm amazed that this is the only thing that doesn't work with this case given its age.

As I don't know who added this case I'll only add a note that it is outdated. If somebody wants to maintain it he is free to do so (in the communal spirit of the Wiki)
