I need to set up a numerical wave tank with some floating particles on the surface (openfoam 1806)


not a problem for the waves part, but I can't generate the particles cloud


In the controlDict I have selected the functionObject

    kinematicCloud
    {
        type            particleDistribution;
        libs            ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        writeControl    writeTime;
        cloud           kinematicCloud;
        nameVsBinWidth
        (
            (d 1e-5)
            (U 0)
        );
        setFormat       raw;
    }

and in constant I've put the properties file, but I keep receiving this output

particleDistribution kinematicCloud output:
--> FOAM Warning : 
    From function virtual bool Foam::functionObjects::particleDistribution::write()
    in file particleDistribution/particleDistribution.C at line 114
    Unable to find cloud kinematicCloud in the mesh database.  Available clouds include:0()

I don't know what am I missing
