Hi foamers,

I just compiled and tried OF-16-ext on Ubuntu 11.10. Trying timisoaraSwirlGenerator case, I get the following error:

Create time

Create dynamic mesh for time = 0

Selecting dynamicFvMesh mixerGgiFvMesh
void mixerGgiFvMesh::addZonesAndModifiers() : Zones and modifiers already present. Skipping.
Mixer mesh:

Reading/calculating face flux field phi



--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Face zone name SV_INLET_ZONE not found. Please check your GGI interface definition.

From function label ggiPolyPatch::zoneIndex() const
in file meshes/polyMesh/polyPatches/constraint/ggi/ggiPolyPatch.C at line 639.

What can be the problem?

Thank you,
Attila

In order to enable GGI interpolation, the GGI patches must be placed in faceZones. The AllRun script contained in the instructions for doing this:

setSet -batch setBatch
setsToZones -noFlipMap

Look at the setBach file and it will tell you what patch names are being created as faceSets. The faceSets and cellSets are then be made into faceZones and cellZones.

The faceZones associated with the ggi patches must be created. This can be done by the following: (Look in the AllRun script)
setSet -batch setBatch
setsToZones -noFlipMap

setBatch is a file that tells what faceSets should be made from the ggi patches. The faceSets are then used to create faceZones that the ggi interpolation algorithm can use.

Good Luck,
Bryan Lewis
