Hello,
I am working on a OpenFoam case. Opening 0 folder, U file includes some vectors written in an unknown format. Has anybody same experience?
Here is copy of the issue:

FoamFile
{

format binary;
class volVectorField;
arch "LSB;label=32;scalar=64";
location "0";
object U;
}
// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //

dimensions [0 1 -1 0 0 0 0];

This is because of the writeFormat you have in your controlDict file:

FoamFile
{
version 2.0;
format binary;
class volVectorField;
arch "LSB;label=32;scalar=64";
location "0";
object U;
}

Go to your controlDict file and change writeFormat from binary to ascii, it will probably solve your problem.

Thank you!!
