Hi, everyone.

I want to calculate the gradients of a volScalarField parameter F in the boundary cells. Now, I am using fvc::grad(F,gradF) to calculate the gradients in all cells, and then look up the values in the boundary cells.

Is there any other more efficient method? I just want to reduce the time used for calculating.

Thanks.

Yong
