Hi there,

I implemented a non-uniform (parabola) inlet boundary condition for pisoFoam, but when I try to use it for simpleFoam, I get the following error:

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Unknown patchField type inletbc for patch type patch

My code is as follows:

type codedFixedValue;
value uniform (0 0 0);
redirectType inletbc;
code
#{
vector dir=vector(0,1,0);
scalarField var=patch().Cf()&dir;
scalarField value=(1.0 - var)*(var+1.0);
operator==(vector(1,0,0)*value);
#};

Any help would be much appreciated!
