Hello everyone, is it possible to set in SC flow prescribed velocity and temperature field in cylindrical coordinates as the boundary condition?

I have 3 vectors and point defining a cylindrical coordinate system. In this coordinate system a have given the temperature field and velocity field in three directions following the coordinate system. The components are heterogeneous over the area.

  • Thank you for the answer? Is there any example on this condition?
    I am not sure if this is applicable to my situation. In my case each velocity component (axial, radial, tangential) and temperature are prescribed in each point of the inlet surface at coordinates (r, theta, z). In SC Flow only “z” axis orientation for the cylindrical coordinate frame can be defined and for the velocity components only one independent coordinate can be defined. The situation is shown in the following figure.
