Hello to the OpenFOAM community.

I'm trying to develop a code to simulate wind turbine without using dynamic mesh.
In my domain i haven't the mesh of the turbine, i use a cube mesh i calculate the forces and applying that in the right point.

I need to fix the velocity value in some point of the domain.

In this point i want to fix the velocity without solving the U equation and i'm not sure that it 's possibile without drawing the geometry in the mesh.

How can i set the value of the velocity?

Thanks,

Did you find a solution/workaround for this? If so, could you please share it?

Hi Mike,


Please have a look here, lines 18 to 61:
https://github.com/vincentcasseau/hy...vEqnInviscid.H

Once you've created your fvMatrix, you can use:

my_fvMatrix.setValues(removedCellsFromMatrix, valuesToImpose);

where the arguments are defined as follows:

DynamicList<label> removedCellsFromMatrix; 
DynamicList<scalar> valuesToImpose;

Thanks,

Vincent
