custom cyclic fvPatchField
Howdy Foamers:
Following this thread, I have decided to investigate the possibly of writing my own fvPatchField based on cyclicFvPatchField. As first step I took cyclicFvPatchField verbatim and renamed it to, say, "myCyclicFvPatchField". Note that I also had to change the TypeName to "myCyclicFvPatchField". The new fvPatchField compiled successfully and was picked up by my solver and, since I did not change its functionality, it should behave exactly like a cyclic boundary condition. Using a test case, I changed the necessary "cyclic" boundaries to "myCyclic". I received the following runtime error: Code:
--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: My question is, do I have to develop a "myCyclic" patch type for use with blockMesh and, if this is the case, also develop a modified version of blockMesh which also include the new "myCyclic" patch type? Thank you very much in advance, Gerry. |
