inlet: log-law velocity profile

zxj160 · February 5, 2012, 05:04

Hello,

I am a beginner of using OpenFOAM. I want to set the log-law velocity profilr as the inlet boundary conditions. How to do that?

look in to wiki, you will find two utilities:
1) groovyBC
2)swak4Foam

Hello, many thanks for your reply. I have download swak4Foam.
svn checkout https://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefo...ies/swak4Foam/

But I do not know how to install it and make it usable.

however it is easy you nead just go to that folder through terminal
then, run this command
./Allwmake
