Hi All, I am trying to use the function object flowRatePatch to output the flow rate at inlet and outlet boundaries for a simpleFoam case. I followed the user guide as shown here:
http://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-guide/function-objects/ However, when I run the case, it shows the error message: =========================================== --> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: keyword type is undefined in dictionary ".FoamFile" file: .FoamFile from line 10 to line 13. From function dictionary::lookupEntry(const word&, bool, bool) const in file db/dictionary/dictionary.C at line 442. ============================================ Line 10 to line 13 refers to these lines in the file flowRatePatch: ============================================ version 2.0; format ascii; class dictionary; object flowRatePatch; ============================================ If I delete these lines, OpenFoam would complain that I don't have type faceSource. How do I install this faceSource? I am using OF3.0.1. Btw, how to find and install additional solvers? I want to use BiCGstabl but don't know how to install it. Thanks for any help!
