Hello,

I'm using timeVaryingMappedFixedValue to import some pre-generated velocity field into my domain. As required by this BC, these data are stored as planes (with a geometry equal to the inlet surface) inside folders named according to the time step. Thus, the simulation looks for the velocity values at a given time step (and interpolates in between) under the corresponding folder under boundaryData.

What I need is to do something similar to the above but for the side boundaries, This is, to make the boundaries to look for the velocity data in stored files, assuming that the flow is advected at a certain mean velocity. My computational domain is a simple rectangular box, so the flow moves tangentially to the side boundaries.

Does someone knows if this can be done using swak4Foam (i.e. groovyBC) or any other utility? From what I have seen in the examples, groovyBC can search for field values within lookuptables but unlike what I need, they would be fixed in time or change according to an expression

Thanks !
