set fields with axi-symetrical mesh

How to set the value of a scalar or a vector field in axi-symetrical mesh? Do we have to use swak4Foam(funkySetFields) or we can use setfieldsdict ?

I have converted 3d mesh generated by OpenFoam to Wedge mesh(because my problem is asymmetric ).Now I want to deposit energy in a particular domain only.How can we do that ?Do we have to create "e" file in 0 folder and then use setfieldsdict to set value of e in a particular domain.

The same way you'd do it for a regular mesh. Really. OpenFOAM-utilities don't care what mesh it is (because the difference is only in the boundary conditions anyway)
