Arbitrary Mesh Interface (cyclicAMI) Boundary Condition

NOTE: cyclicAMI boundary condition is supported by boundary type cyclicAMI, defined in the mesh file boundary:

 

 boundaryField
 {
    rotor_periodic_1 
    {
        type            cyclicAMI;
        inGroups        1(cyclicAMI);
        matchTolerance  0.1;
        transform       rotational;
        neighbourPatch  rotor_periodic_2;
        rotationAxis    (0 0 1);
        rotationCentre  (0 0 0);
        nFaces          1628;
        startFace       171370;
    }
 }

Parameter rotationAxis defines the axis in Cartesian coordinates (directional vector of the axis).

Parameter rotationCentre is any point from the axis. So, the axis is defined by its directional vector and one of its points.
cyclicAMI boundary condition is the same for all quantities (scalars, vectors, tensors):

p, U, k, omega, epsilon, T:

 boundaryField
 {
    rotor_periodic_1 
    {
          type         cyclicAMI;
    }
 }
