Coordinate system issues: cylindricalCS / fixedProfileFvPatchField

  • cyclindricalCS cannot be run-time selected: missing TypeName and addToRunTimeSelectionTable.
  • hard to specify
        coordinateSystem
        {
            coordinateRotation
            {
                type            axesRotation;
                e3              (1 0 0);
                e1              (0 1 0);
            }
            type            cylindricalCS;
            origin          (0 0 0.01);
        }

With this in place we could re-write various boundary conditions to use cylindrical coordinates. E.g. fixedProfileFvPatchField.

Remark: cylindrical coordinateRotation currently stores transformation tensors. This should be stored outside.
