Hi,
does anyone know how to set the boundary conditions so that they are a function of the coordinate system. I need to have the inlet boundary condition for velocity, so that it is a function of the height in the domain. is this possible?
Thanks,
Chris

I tried installing groovyBC however I get an error saying that there is no such file or directory as PatchValueExpressionLexer.C. I have the recommended version of Bison installed 2.4.1,
does anyone know what the problem is or how I can fix this?
Thanks,
Chris

for compiling groovyBC in ur system:
1) install Bison (you can find it in package manger in ubuntu or fedora )
2) through terminal , go to the groovyBC directory and write bellow command
wmake libso

i dont whats ur linux distribution but i guess its not fedora because bison has been installed there before hand
but if you use ubuntu as operating system, in package manager, among different bison , u should use which one supported by ubuntu label !!!! (but im not sure )

I installed a different version of bison, (not the recommended one) an then it compiled fine.
Thanks for your help, it was most appreciated.
