Dream is on a distinguished road
We set up the separator model, and stimulates the multiphase flow. After we ran the setFields, the following information occurred:

Setting field default values
Setting internal values of volScalarField alphaair
Setting internal values of volScalarField alphawater


--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Cannot find patchField entry for wall

file: /home/dell/OpenFOAM/damBreak4phaseFinelmxlmx/0/alphawater.boundaryField from line 34 to line 56.

From function GeometricField<Type, PatchField, GeoMesh>::GeometricBoundaryField::readField(const DimensionedField<Type, GeoMesh>&, const dictionary&)

Maybe the boundary conditions were set incorrectly, but we didn't know how to revise them.
Thanks so much for help!
