Compile calcMassFlowC
 

Hi,

Has anybody compiled calcMassFlow.C with OpenFoam 1.3 or does a new version of this file which is compatible with OpenFoam 1.3 exist?

I need help. Thank you

Where is the file located ?
 

Where is the file located ?

Rolf

@aurore: the file still works
 

@aurore: the file still works for 1.3 you only have to change the fie Make/options (see http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/HowTo_port_from _older_versions_to_13)
(to be honest, I just wrote this, hope it helps)

@rolf: my guess is that aurore is refering to http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_calcMas sFlow

Hello Bernhard

I cannot compile calcMassFlow, as I don't have the neccesary libraries. I can see a link to FaceSetUtilities in Make/options:

-I$(WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR)/Libraries/cellFaceSetUtilities/lnInclude

This is obviously not a standard OpenFOAM library.

Thanks
Rolf

Hello Bernhard,

Thank you for your help

Sorry Aurore, Sorry Rolf! Y
 

Sorry Aurore, Sorry Rolf!

You are absolutely right and it's my fault. Let me explain the chronology of things

1. I posted the original calcMassFlow (then everything worked)
2. I separated some things concerning faceSets into a library
3. I forgot about the library and posted the updated calcMassFlow (I even checked by downloading and recompiling, but of course I've got the library installed so .....)

I will update that (should be available today or tomorrow)

OK. The library can be downloa
 

OK. The library can be downloaded from the Wiki-Page of calcMassFlow.

(The library currently only consists of only one function so if you want to you can copy the function to the main source file instead of installing the library)

Hi, I still have the problem.
 

Hi, I still have the problem. First of all, if I downloaded the files, where should I store these files? I put both files in /workdir/flux1/e7guest/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/src. Because it complained that FaceSetUtilities.H cannot be found, I copied FaceSetUtilities.H from library to the source file calcMassFlow, then compilation was ok. I moved calcMassFlowDict to the system directory of my solver case, say sonicTurbFoam/testCase/system, specified the patches in this dictionary. Last I ran the case, but no information was output. I am confused about this. Did I do something wrong? Thank you!

Sorry, forget about the questi
 

Sorry, forget about the question

I'm having trouble compiling your code, too.
I have download the tool and the library and put them in seperated directories in /postProcessing/

I did a wmake libso in the cellFaceSetUtilities directory and a wmake in the calcMassFlow dirctory.

Whats wrong?

Maybe the problem is, that I don't understand the following:
Make sure that the lnInclude is in the INCLUDE-path when compiling programs that use the library. The library itself is automagically used because it goes to the $FOAM_USER_LIBBIN.

Hi Sebastian! Don't bother.
 

Hi Sebastian!

Don't bother.
fvCFD.H is a strong hint, that this is a pre-1.3 source. It won't compile on a current OF-installation.
I think someone here on the MessageBoard posted an improved version a couple of months ago

Maybe I'll put the current version on the SVN one of these days, but don't hold your breath.

BTW: I never tried, but maybe the stock-utilities patchIntegrate/patchAverage might help you.

Bernhard

Hello Bernhard. Yes, the pa
 

Hello Bernhard.

Yes, the patchAverage worked.
After calculating the Ucomponents I was able to calculate the average velocity and so the average mass flow rate.

If you remember my post at your setParabolicInlet I used a nonuniform list to create a parabolic inflow.
After comparing the desired average flow rate with the calculated value I have an error of about 0.8%.
Do you think this is small enough?

Hi,
I am trying to compile calcMassFlow. I have followed wiki calcMassFlow instructions but I am getting the following error.Anybody is there to help me ?:)

Hello sam.ho

How did you correct the error message?

fatal error: FaceSetUtilities.H: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.


Can somebody help me? I'm using foam 4.0
