Hi All,

I'm using buoyantBoussinesqPimpleFoam to solve convective heat transfer between concentric cylinders. I need to calculate the heat flux going from the inner to outer cylinders.

I've tried using wallHeatFlux to do this. First time I tried it it required a thermophysicalProperties file. Which I included.

Now I'm getting this message


Code:
--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
LHS and RHS of + have different dimensions
     dimensions : [1 -1 -1 0 0 0 0] + [0 2 -1 0 0 0 0]
I get my dimensions are off with some value, but which one??

my wallheatfluxdict

I'm using blueCFD 2016 on Windows 7 FYI. I'm kind of stuck with what I got for now.
