Community created Errata for the OpenFOAM Programmer's Guide.
Notes to contributors: Please include the chapter number of the printed version to avoid confusion (the Wiki might give different chapter numbers)
Contents
1 Chapter 1: Tensor mathematics
1.1 Section 1.4: OpenFOAM tensor classes
1.1.1 Subsection 1.4.1: Algebraic tensor operations in OpenFOAM
Valid versions: 
In Table 1.2: Algebraic tensor operations in OpenFOAM, the following entries need fixing:
| Operation | Description in OpenFOAM (wrong) |
Description in OpenFOAM (correct) |
|---|---|---|
| Component maximum | max(a) | cmptMax(a) |
| Component minimum | min(a) | cmptMin(a) |
| Scale | scale(a,b) | cmptMultiply(a,b) |
2 Chapter 2: Discretisation procedures
2.1 Section 2.4: Equation discretisation
2.1.1 Subsection 2.4.6: Gradient
Valid versions:
- All references to timeScheme should be either gradSchemes or snGradSchemes [1].
- The indication of [Check**] implies that this subsection needs to be revised.
2.1.2 Subsection 2.6.1: Physical boundary conditions
Valid versions:
- The indication of [Check**] implies that this subsection needs to be revised.
3 Chapter 3: Examples of the use of OpenFOAM
4 Chapter 4: Programming techniques
