Hi,
I created custom velocity inlets for
a) linear shear flow
b) logarithmic velocity profile
to use them with pisoFoam.

For testing I run the following commands:
1) ~>decomposePar
2) ~>mpirun -np 4 pisoFoam -parallel -case .
3) ~>pisoFoam -case .

In the case of the linear inlet (a): 1-3 run without error
In the case of the logarithmic inlet (b): only (1) and (3) run

running pisoFoam in parallel however fails with the error message below.
The corresponding section in the velocity 0/U:
...
inlet
{
type logVelocity;
n (1 0 0);
y (0 0 1);
uStar 1.0;
z0 0.1;
kappa 0.41;
//value uniform (0 0 0); // for paraview
}

I dont know where to search for the error, as my configs/custom
libs run fine in the serial case.

When checking the processor0 - processor3 directories I found that the kappa entry was missing in the U dictionary.
After adding the entry manually I succeeded running the case
Hope somebody has an idea why decomposePar omits the entry

Thanks a lot
hj
