fvsPatchField
 

Is there any way how I can create a new fvsPatchField so that the new boundary types are all calculated. Same story with fvPatchField works. Just fvsPatchField which does strange things..


surfaceVectorField density2
(
IOobject
(
"density2",
runTime.timeName(),
mesh,
IOobject::READ_IF_PRESENT,
IOobject::AUTO_WRITE
),
mesh,
dimensionedVector( "zero", dimensionSet( 1, -3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ), pTraits<vector>::zero ),
calculatedFvPatchField<vector>::typeName
);

It seams not to be possible to overwrite the boundary types. Independent of what I did.
Defining
surfaceVectorField lala = linearInterpolate(rho*U);
where rho is a volVectorField with only calculated and U has cyclicAMI in it the resulting field "lala" contains the cyclicAMI boundaries. How is this possible?

Do you want to change the boundary type or just overwriting values at this fvsPatch? If latter is the case, you could do something like

But I am not sure, if this works, since I did that only for fvPatchFields so far.

This is called a constrained type: types like eg. processor or GGI will be enforced for you because this is required for the code to work properly.


Why would you want to enforce a different type on the constrained boundary anyway?

Problem was that I have a boundary for heat transfer using ami-interpolation object. The ami-interpolation should only be used for temperature boundary condition while ie velocity and pressure should be usual wall boundary conditions. Therefore on this boundary I would like to have phi calculated and not of type in the boundary file. This was no problem with 1.5 but is no more easily accesible with 2.2.
