  1. I'm looking for some help with some problems i'm having linking OpenFoam to FFW. Before going into detail I should mention that I've only been using OpenFoam (2.3 and 2.2.2) since the start of the week, which is also the length of time I've been using linux (ubuntu 14.04 LTS) so I'm pretty green regarding the use of both systems. The simulation in question is one of the tutorial problems provided with OpenFoam, snappyMultiRegionHeater, which is a Heater Transfer problem using snappyHexMesh with multiple STL files representing solid regions and regions of air. Now I've had no problem getting OpenFoam to run via FFW, the simulation itself runs perfectly and the outputted *.openFoam files open and can be post processed in paraview without any issue. My problem arises when FFW attempts to read the *.openFoam files and fails to read the data, an example of the output error is given below. ERROR: In /home/qt/4.8.5/VTK/IO/Geometry/vtkOpenFOAMReader.cxx, line 6875 vtkOpenFOAMReaderPrivate (0x5080b40): boundaryField maxY not found in object T at time = 0 The error above is generated whether the computation connector loads the *.openFoam file, or whether i load it manually. It generates the error for each tracked variable (T, U, alphat, epsilon, K, p, p_rgh, rho) as well as one or (typically) more boundary fields. I've attempted to convert the *.openFoam files to the ensight format as well, but the problem persists. I've run the simulation using two versions of OpenFoam as well, 2.3.0 and 2.2.2 to see if there was any difference. A dropbox link to the simulation files is as follows https://www.dropbox.com/s/xc82r76hfy9pqw0/OpenFoamToFFW.7z Any advice you might have would be very helpful. Edit: I've been running some other simple simulations and attempting to read thier *.openFoam files (damBreak (multiphase) and flange (snappyhexmesh)) and while FFW successfully loads them into the connector any attempt to post-process them causes a segmentation fault.
