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?

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..

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

Hallo Markus,

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.

I want to be able to create the constant/boundaryData/inlet files.

What is contained in the points file and is there an easy way to create one?

Why for the tutorial case simpleFoam/pitzDailyExptInlet/ which uses the BC do the files contain 70 values when the fvPatch faceCells() function returns 30 cells for the case?

I am currently trying to implement a inflow data generator for OpenFOAM which upon completion will be made available open-source to the OpenFOAM community.

Thanks
David

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.

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

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?
