Hi,
Does anybody know how to define a second order polynomial as velocity boundary condition?

[jherb]

Either you define a new boundary condition, as describe e.g. at http://de.slideshare.net/fumiyanozak...ns-in-openfoam

or you use groovyBoundaryCondition from swak4foam:

Thank you but I mean spacial polynomial. I want to model a second order curve as inlet velocity profile.

[jherb]

With both ways (write a new boundary condition or use groovyBC) you can use the coordinates of the faces for calculating the velocity (direction and magnitude) per face to get a spacial distribution.

Thank you.
Could you possibly correct the following code for me. I dont know why it does not work.

TopWall
{
type uniformFixedValue;
uniformValue polynomial
(
((0 1 0) (100 0 0))
((1 1 0) (20 0 0 ))

);
}
