[Other] Issues installting foamCalcEx on OF6

mcfdma · January 1, 2020, 19:12

So I want to use volIntegrate using foamCalcEx (installation - https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/C...alcEx#Download)

when I try to ./Allwmake I am getting an error:

I referred to Error making a new utility code: "cyclicAMILduInterface.H: No such file or directory"

where I included

Code:

EXE_INC = \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/triSurface/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/surfMesh/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/fileFormats/lnInclude 


LIB_LIBS = \
    -ltriSurface \
    -lsurfMesh \
    -lfileFormats

in src/meshTools/Make at the top suggested on the same thread (i.e. to put it first)

Error making a new utility code: "cyclicAMILduInterface.H: No such file or directory"

At meshTools, I wclean as per wmake error: file 'Make/linux64Gcc44DPOpt/objectFiles' could not be created and followed by wmake, that's when I get the error.

Error

Any help is appreciated.

https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...etc/caseDictsI think some hit and trial has to be done. Try removing all the other files and folders from your Make directory except files and options. And then wmake again. Sometimes i have faced these kind of problems for which I used this.

Other than that I think trying changing the order of lnInclude files.

PS: I think you can also use function object for your activity. Pls see if these folders are of any help

I tried different ways but unfortunately none of them are successful so far.

In regards to removing other files and folders from Make directory, I have nothing else beside file and options.

Yes I had a look at the functionsObjects but couldn't find the ones I require:

1. volIntegrate (which is available using foamCalcEx https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_foamCalcEx)

2. magGrad (which is available using foamCalc Use of foamCalc)

Any other way to acquire those?

gtarang · January 4, 2020, 12:06

Sorry I cannot help with compilation, after quick glance through the code at bitbucket, I can help you with magGrad utility.

Code:

postProcess -func "grad(T)"
postProcess -func "mag(grad(T))"

T is the variable name.
I check above code for OpenFOAM-6. I guess above code will work for OpenFOAM-5 onwards.

I couldn't get what volIntegrate is supposed to do. Can you explain a bit what you want to achieve through it?

Hi Tarang. Sorry for the late reply.

I realised the "mag(grad(T))" postProcess in another forum but thank you for helping me with that.

volIntegrate is volume integral of a field, in my case volumetric charge density.

I will try the volFieldValue function to see if I get the same results I acquired using foamCalcEx in OF231 or maybe try define operation volIntegrate .

Another way I found is including function in controlDict (volum integral of mag(U)...?)

will update which works with OF6.
