Hello foamer,

I'm struggling while use activeBaffleVelocity and activePressureForceBaffleVelocity boundary condition in OF11

To use it, I needed 4 baffles which share the geometry and position(2 for cyclic pair and 2 for merged wall)

Thanks to the awesome tutorial from Holzmann CFD, I can do this in OF from ESI group

However, when I moved into OF11 from OpenFOAM Foundation, I found out quadruplicate parts in createBafflesDict dosen't work since Foundation version require strictly require for owner and neighbor pair per one facezone(and I guessed that's why Holzmann CFD dose not upload tutorial for Foundation version)

As far as I tried
  1. Generate 2 pair of baffles using same facezone
  2. Duplicate facezone with identical faceset using topoSet then makes baffle per each facezone
  3. Make cyclic pair first then makes merged wall from cyclic pair using createPatch
But none of them is successful. First 2 attempt ends with error "face# is already in facezone 1" and last attempt left no face in cyclic pair thus boundary condition dose not work.

Since both activeBaffleVelocity and activePressureForceBaffleVelocity boundary condition are still in OF11 I think there must be a clever workaround.

Is there any succeed in OpenFOAM Foundation that utilize activeBaffleVelocity or activePressureForceBaffleVelocity boundary condition?

Hello Seungtae,

Could you find any solution to this problem? I'm trying to apply the same BC and I can't make it work either.

Cheers,
Matias.
