I am new to OF, I am trying SymmetryPlane BC on my topWall rather than zerogradient.

Here is the error (below), anybody knows what I am doing wrong ? Thank you

Hi Amin,

It seems that you specify wall patch for topWall in blockMeshDict, then you can not specify symmetryPlane to that patch again. In your blockMeshDict, you might want to use something like "patch topWall {..}" instead of "wall topWall {...}".
