Dear Foamers,

I am trying to change simpleFoam in order to use cyclic boundary condition for a simulate fully developed turbulent flow in a channel. To do it I mainly used:

My problem is that I do not understand why I get different velocity values along the cyclic patch (as showed in the picture) also if I give uniform velocity as initial condition.


Thanks a lot,
Ilaria
