velocity inlet definition
 
1 Attachment(s)
hello everyone
I have simulated fluid flow in a pipe. velocity inlet was defined at the inlet of the pipe . I want to set the velocity profile the same as which has been shown in the picture. this function does not have an specific definition so I think I have to define it by list of digits which is consist of velocities and times.
I have no idea about defining these digits as a velocity inlet in Openfoam, please help me to solve the problem.
thanks

should I define it in this way?
Code:
OpenFOAM table file
uniformValue    tableFile;
tableFileCoeffs
{
    fileName    "$FOAM_CASE/myDataFile"
    outOfBounds  clamp;
}
