timeVaryingUniformTotalPressure boundary condition
 

Hi forum,

I am trying to implement the timeVaryingUniformTotalPressure boundary condition for the channel flow simulation in sonicFoam solver. I want to give a time varyingpressure condition at the inlet from the file inlet.dat. I havent used this BC before and I am having some problem in implementation. The solver failed to run with error message:

gradientInternalCoeffs cannot be called for a genericFvPatchField (actual type timeVaryingUniformTotalPressure)
on patch inlet of field p in file "/home/e343880/OpenFOAM/e343880-1.5/run/tutorials/sonicFoam/channel-sonic0-inletdat/0/p"
You are probably trying to solve for a field with a generic boundary condition.

From function genericFvPatchField<Type>::gradientInternalCoeffs( ) const
in file fields/fvPatchFields/basic/generic/genericFvPatchField.C at line 692.


The Make/options file in the solver reads:

EXE_INC = \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude

EXE_LIBS = -lfiniteVolume


Do you have any idea where I am going wrong?

regards,

Nishant

hi forum

I tried to recompile the folder:
/home/e343880/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/src/finiteVolume

then I noticed that there are some errors here. They are complaining about some error about undefined reference to the triSurface() function. I was wondering if this has something to do with the problem mentioned above?

Error reported is:
