Error when post-processing turboPassageRotating2D
 

Hi. Everybody.
I'm a new openFoam user. so i can not launch this case. I don't know how to fix the error. Can you help please.
This is case (case of an master thesis which downloaded from web http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~hani/kurser/OS_CFD/)
thanks a lot!

This is error:
--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:

Cannot find 'value' entry on patch rotor_cyclic_upper of field p in file "/home/minh/Desktop/turboPassageRotating2D/0/p"
which is required to set the values of the generic patch field.
(Actual type cyclicGgi)

Please add the 'value' entry to the write function of the user-defined boundary-condition


file: /home/minh/Desktop/turboPassageRotating2D/0/p.boundaryField.rotor_cyclic_upper from line 43 to line 43.

Please show to me, thankS!

Can you post the pressure boundary condition file of your case (since that's where the problem is occurring)?

As a side note, I think the title of your post is a bit misleading.

All the best,

ThankS.
This is my pressure boundary condition.

Alright, I think you're using an older version of FOAM since you have "GGI" instead of "AMI", am I right? If yes then I cannot help you since I've only used 2.x and above for sliding meshes. Nonetheless, this is how I define the AMI pressure BC in 2.1.x and 2.2.x and it works:

Maybe check the tutorials/incompressible/pimpleDyMFoam tutorials for the version you are using. There should be either a mixerVessl or propeller which use AMI or GGI.

Good luck,

A
