Error using tableFile as boundary condition
 

Hello,

I am new to OF and for my boundary condition I want to read in a file.
Somehow I am not able to get it running with the OFv1906 version. When I change the BC to a fixed value the simulation runs without any error messages.


"cut_A82_1.tif_intens_p4_f.stl.*"
{
type uniformFixedGradient;
uniformGradient tableFile;
uniformGradientCoeffs
{
fileName "$FOAM_CASE/keyhole.data";
};

}

The error Message is:

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Entry 'file' not found in dictionary "/mnt/c/Users/ac134577/OpenFOAM/Test2/0/T.boundaryField.cut_A82_1.tif_intens_p4_f.stl.*.un iformGradientCoeffs"

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thank you for your help!!

Hi,

It looks like OpenFOAM searches for the keyword file instead of fileName.

Hope that will solve your problem.

Thank you Tom!

That solved the problem.
