Hello,
I would like to declare a variable in blockMeshDict. It should look like this: aa=10; bb=aa/10; with "int" it doesn't seem to work. Thank you very much |

Hey,
as far as I know creating blockMeshDict files including variables doesn't work, though the file itself is written in C++ style. If you want to use variables you better write yourself a small tool (I'm not aware of one existing) that creates a blockMeshDict file and with this tool you can create insert values and variables in a blockMeshDict file, which are dependent on each other. For the case that I'm wrong, I would also be interested in how to include variables in a different manor. regards Colin EDIT: This looks more like a topic for the blockMesh sub Forum than for the running/solving sub Forum |

I think that the "m4" macros are what you are looking for.
Just look for the corresponding tutorials .../tutorials> find ./ -name *m4 and also in the forum. I have not used this my self but it looks easy to understand. |

You can also write a python script which creates blockMeshDict. It's very easy to write one, and works well.
