Hi,


I am facing a strange problem. I have zeroGradient bc at wall for URel. The paraview (attached) shows non zero values of URel on wall. However, when I printed the values of URel on wall by the code it always appeared zero as:
........

URel : (0 0 0)
U : (-8.00926 -3.86122 -0.00472897)
URel : (0 0 0)
U : (-7.54277 -3.22607 -0.00493376)
URel : (0 0 0)
U : (-7.03122 -1.90373 -0.0055965)
URel : (0 0 0)
.........


I need the values of URel on wall for further calculation inside the code. I shall be grateful if anyone kindly help me to solve it.


URel is obtained from MRF.


Thanks a lot.

If any more information is required I will be happy to share.

To tackle this problem I defined URef as:
volVectorField URef
(
IOobject
(
"URef",
runTime.timeName(),
mesh,
IOobject::NO_READ,
IOobject::NO_WRITE
),
URel
);


and then I did:
URef.correctBoundaryConditions();


But strangely value of Uref that I got printing out from code and URel from paraview are different. Actually paraview results looks more physical.


Can anyone please give some solution to it.



Thanks a lot for your time.
