Continuing a run
 

Looking at previous posts it looked as if I could a simulation by setting startFromn to latestTime.

However, when I did this I get

--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:

gradientInternalCoeffs cannot be called for a calculatedFvPatchField on patch outlet of field Alpha in file "d:/blueCFD-SingleCore-2.1/OpenFOAM-2.1/tutorials/multiphase/settlingFoam/ras/circular - fixed flow/360/Alpha"

You are probably trying to solve for a field with a default boundary condition.

From function calculatedFvPatchField<Type>::gradientInternalCoef fs() const in file fields/fvPatchFields/basic/calculated/calculatedFvPatchField.C at line 196.

FOAM exiting

In /0/Alpha I specified boundary conditions; in /360/Alpha these have been replaced by numerical values.

I did try replacing the contents of boundary{} with the /0/ values, but then I got a message that the token had already been read.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?
