Ok I was focused on a script which replaced those parameters automatically.
Thanks for the refresh-session, I need vacation...

What is in "include/initialConditions"? Any zero-values accidentally? Please check with implementation.

[izna]

no zero value..

flowVelocity (0 0 0);
pressure 0.01;
turbulentKE 1.0822;
turbulentEpsilon 0.01;

[Bernhard]

Where did you define these variable? I assumed they were in this include file?
Uref $Uref;
Href $Href;
n $windDirection;
z $zDirection;
z0 $z0;
zGround $zGround;

[izna]

Ustar 0.6110;
Uref 18.767;
Href 6500;
z0 0.03;
turbulentKE 1.0822;
windDirection (1 0 0);
zDirection (0 0 1);
zGround uniform 0.02;

these are in ABL conditions

Hi izna,

Have you solved the problem？ I‘m trying to do the same case with you and I also find the error:

PyFoam.ThirdParty.pyratemp.TemplateSyntaxError: line 2, col 1: invalid syntax (, line 1)

If you have made any progress, please tell me.

Best regards

Hello. Newbie on this pyfoam automation thing.

Anybody knows why pyfoam crashes when trying to invoke template.writeToFile?

template.writeToFile(bmName,{'z0':z0,'us':us})
gets the following error:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./run_z0.py", line 113, in <module>
main(template0, template, orig, target0, withBlock, z0)

I've been having the same problem for a week now but finally I solved it. simply add the following arg to the call of TemplateFile:

expressionDelimiter="$"

wich makes a line like this:

template = TemplateFile( bmName + ".template",expressionDelimiter="$")

It seems that newer versions of pyFoam (0.6.5) have different expression delimiters than the old ones.
I know its too late to post this but I do it to help others having this problem since it was hard to find a solution for me.

Thanks ZenCFD for the solution. But how did you locate the error?
