Dear Foamers,

I have been looking into the time varying boundary conditions in OpenFoam. (http://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-guide/boundaries/) lists them nicely.

All the boundary condition can vary a parameter in time, but if I understand it correctly the parameter is spatially constant over the inflow surface. i.e if the velocity at time t1 is V1 then it will be V1 everywhere on the inflow surface as far as I understand.

Does anybody know of boundary condition that can vary a field in time and space?

The reason that I ask is because for my inflow I have data files that describe all the fields in time (which vary spatially). So what I need is a boundary condition that can vary an inflow condition not only in time but also in space.

Any idea's would be appreciated.
