Hello Foamers!
I want to set the boundary freestream value of the velocity using the following equation:
u_oo = Re[reynolds number] * nu [dynamic viscosity] (L = 1m)
the dynamic viscosity is defined in the constant/transportProperties file. Is there a way to access its value and writing something simple as the following, in the 0/U file?

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

internalField uniform ( 1. 0. 0. );


boundaryField
{
Farfield
{
type freestream;
freestreamValue $internalField*($transportModel/nu)*1e6; //Re = 1e6
}
