Hi all,
can someone please help me with getting the size of a patch?

For example something like that:
scalarField af = mesh.magSf().boundaryField()[inletIndex];
A +=gSum(af);

does not work.

Thanks
Anja

const fvPatchList& patches(mesh.boundary());
forAll (patches, patchi)
{
if (patches[patchi].name()==word("inlet"))
{
scalar areaP = sum(patches[patchi].magSf());
}
}

Hope this helps

Pierre

This

scalar A = gSum(mesh.boundaryField()[inletIndex].magSf());

should work fine.
