Hallo everyone,

I also have some problems in compiling the waveDyMFoam.

I think that the problem may be in the createField.H.

In the interFoam version we have this :
//#include "readGravitationalAcceleration.H"
#include "readhRef.H"
#include "gh.H"
//volScalarField gh("gh", g & (mesh.C() - referencePoint));
//surfaceScalarField ghf("ghf", g & (mesh.Cf() - referencePoint));

On the other hand in the waveFoam version we have this :
//#include "readGravitationalAcceleration.H"
//#include "readhRef.H"
//#include "gh.H"
volScalarField gh("gh", g & (mesh.C() - referencePoint));
surfaceScalarField ghf("ghf", g & (mesh.Cf() - referencePoint));
Does anyone know the difference?

If someone replaces the second with the first way, then both (waveFoam and waveDyMFoam) can be compiled, because the waveDyMFoam is "using" the ghRef. But is it correct?

Thank you in advance.
Tasos.

Hi Tasos,

The reference point part (introduced by waves2Foam) pre-dates the implementation into OpenFoam, which is why there are two options in newer version of OpenFoam. I have not had any problems using the waves2Foam version, but please tell me, if you encounter any issues (besides compilation).

Kind regards,

Niels
