When I'm using ParaView3.8 to check the initial condition, the paraView keep telling me that :
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "--> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Invalid wall function specification Patch type for patch walls must be wall Current patch type is wall From function nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField::checkType() in file derivedFvPatchFields/wallFunctions/nutWallFunctions/nutWallFunction/nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.C at line 48." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- But When I'm checking the polyMesh files, there seems no problem with my blockMesh and boundary: In the blockMeshDict I defined : patches ( wall walls ( (0 12 16 4) (4 16 20 8) (3 7 19 15) (7 11 23 19) (0 1 13 12) (1 2 14 13) (2 3 15 14) (0 4 5 1) (1 5 6 2) (2 6 7 3) (4 8 9 5) (5 9 10 6) (6 10 11 7) (12 13 17 16) (13 14 18 17) (14 15 19 18) (16 17 21 20) (17 18 22 21) (18 19 23 22) ) patch atmosphere ( (9 8 20 21) (10 9 21 22) (11 10 22 23) ) ); In the boundary file I can see that : 2 ( walls { type wall; nFaces 106400; startFace 1413300; } atmosphere { type patch; nFaces 7000; startFace 1519700; } ) So could anybody help me with this problem? |

BTW, in paraView, I can see in the mesh types:
internalMesh walls - patch atmosphere - patch Why? I did define the walls as wall, not patch! |
