Hello everybody,
my question would be whether it is possible with timeVarryingMappedFixedValue to map solutions from another simulation to the inlet of a new one. in my case I have different velocity profiles at the outlet of a simple tube (because of an oscillating pressure gradient) and I want to use those U-profiles for a lot of time directories at the inlet of another gemetrie e.g. 0,0.001,0.002,0.003,.... is there a way to achieve this? greets |

Hello,
I successfully used timeVaryingMappedFixedValue but checking the inlet patch I observed that a few faces did not obtain the right values. I added two pictures to illustrate the problem. Any suggestions to get rid of the problem? Markus |
timeVaryingMappedFixedValue
dear All
how to specify k, epsilon and u boundary condition for timeVaryingMappedFixedValue for inlet. Please answer... Dr Borse |
timeVaryingMappedFixedValue.
How to specify boundary condition for k, epsilon and U for timeVaryingMappedFixedValue....I am not able to generate k, epsilon, U fields from already existing boundary fIELDS.. dr borse |
hello everybody,
I'm trying to understand how the pitzDailyExptInlet tutorial (employing timeVaryingMappedFixdValue patch type) works. I mean, apart from the files points (70 values) and U, k, epsilon (70 values) in boundaryData directory, why does it need nonUniform lists of values (30 values) at inlet for k and epsilon in 0 directory? why 30 values? why not a list for 0/U too? I'm using timeVaryingMappedFixedValue patch at inlet in a channel flow, which uses as inlet boundary condition fields sampled at a certain section of a "preliminar channel flow". I would like to know if it is sufficient to create a boundaryData directory with points and field files obtained with the sample utility, or if it is needed to include a list of values (how many values?!) in 0/U,p,.... thank you very much in advance :) |

I also have the same problem with you. I have more points without right values. Did you figure it out? |
Hello,
considering faces that have not the right values: I don't know why but it might help to consider how the geometry is evaluated. We discussed the BC at the OF Stammtisch Zürich and based on boundaryData/PATCH/points, the first point of the file is taken (p1) and a search for the farthest point from p1 is done to gian p2. Then a search is done for the point that is farthest from p2-p1 (=p3). Then a linear interpolation for every face center of the chosen patch is performed, weighted to 3 vertices. So, maybe resorting the point file might solve it? |
Hello,
I am also interested in this kind of BC in OF now. In the tutorial simpleFoam/pitzDailyExptInlet/, we have the constant/boundaryData/inlet/points, and there are two parts of the point coordinates: min z and max z. For max z, why the z coordinate is 0.173. I plot out the geometry using paraview, actually the z is from -0.0005 to 0.0005. So the zmin and zmax for the points on the inlet should be -0.0005 and 0.0005, respectively. What is the problem for my above understanding? Thank you so much. Quote:

Points for inlet
Hi all,
I'am using OpenFOAM 2.3.0 and want to use the timeVaryingMappedFixedValue condition to control my inlet pressures on the boundary.My question is, how do I extract the points on the inlet surface to include in the points file in the constant/boundaryData/inlet folder? I'am sorry if this has a fairly obvious answer, I started using OpenFOAM only the past month. |
Is there any alternative of oscillatingFixedValue inlet bc in opnFoam 4.1?
hello foamers,
I am trying to give a sinusoidal velocity profile at the inlet. but as I am using openfoam 4.1 , the derived bc's doesn't contain an oscillatingFixedValue bc. I am unable to find out the equivalent one for ofv4.1. Please help me out |
How to switch on debug ?
|
Hey guys,
I am also looking at the tVMFV boundary condition and thought about using it to set an hourly temperature on my patches. So I got one question. Is there a way to do this for the whole patch or do I have to look for the points and give each one a value? |
Thanks you!
