Hello everyone,

I'm trying to implement the IHFoam Green Water Loading Case in OpenFOAM v1912, I have managed to create the mesh using damBreak case located in the multiphase interfoam ras tutorial, but now I am not able to solve the problem. When I try commands setFields or interFoam program exits with an error saying that "Cannot find patchField entry for rigthWall" I have checked every single parameter declaration in "0" file, but couldn't find where the problem is. If you could help me to solve the problem, I would be more than glad.

Here is my blockMeshDict file;

Code:

Hi Leuthar,

You just have a typo in your blockMeshDict : rigthWall instead of rightWall. This cause a mismatch between your patch names "rigthWall" in your mesh and your boundary condition defined for "rightWall".

Cheers!

I was thinking the problem was in the boundary conditions, that would have take ages for me to find about that. Thanks a lot, very much appreciated!
