Odd mapFields issue/question
 

Hello, I'm trying to use mapFields to map a solution from the center of a domain to an inlet. I've run a RANS case, copied the data to a new folder, moved the points in the mesh (to align the ~center of the mesh with my new inlet boundary), and then ran mapFields to map the results. This works OK, I do not get any errors, and my data has been mapped and the variable files have been altered (U, k, omega, etc...).

However, when I went to check that everything was mapped correctly, I found an odd problem (which I am not sure why it happened, if it is somehow intended or is related to an error I unwittingly made).

Looking at the velocity profile from the original plane (where the data is mapped from) and comparing it to the plane it was mapped to, there is a difference. (See attached image of U+ vs y+) Also, the mesh is exactly the same, so there should be no interpolation issues that I can think of.

The reason for this difference is apparent when I look at the data itself, the velocity profile data maps correctly for every point except the one closest to the wall! :confused:

The velocity normal from the wall appears as follows:

There is the slightest difference in the velocities in each of the points, but the difference is negligible, except in the first cell off the wall.

Why is this occurring? :o Am I doing something incorrectly? Is this somehow intended? Thank you!
