Hi all,

I want to create a new boundary conditon, that combines inletOutlet and timeVaryingUniformFixedValue.

Therfore I followed this instructions http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~hani/kurser/OS_CFD_2008/implementBoundaryCondition.pdf. But when I only copy one existing boundary and then try to compile it. I allways get errors because of redefinitions like this:

What's wrong?

Can anybody help me?

Hi,

I am now abled to compile the original boundary conditions!!

But I have problems in combining the two boundaries. I want that the inletValue is read out of a file with time depending values, like in timeVaryingUniformFixedValue.

How can I do this?

Chris,

Were you able to solve this problem? Even I am looking to give time-varying boundary conditions. I know I can give for lagrangian particles as it is given in dieselFoam, but dont know how to give for boundary conditions in gas-phase.

Also do you know how can we impose mass flow boundary conditions.

Thanks,
Nir

Hi,

I implemented my bc by using groovyBC.

type groovyBC;
gradientExpression "gradT";
fractionExpression "(phi > 0) ? 0 : 1";
timelines (
{
name Temp;
outOfBounds repeat;
fileName "$FOAM_CASE/rb_p_T";
}
);
variables "gradT=0;";
valueExpression "Temp";
value uniform 900;

Details about this contirbutions can be found here: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...s_are_defined:

You can also make bc incorporating the mass-flow. Therefor you can take flowRateInletVelocity for example. Or for time depending mass-flow take timeVaryingFlowRateInletVelocity.

I hope I could help you.

Regards Chrisi

Hello Chrisi

I'm quite new in openFoam and I also try to create an own bc. I receive the same error as you with the redefinitions. What have you done to get rid of these errors?

Thanks Peter
