Hello, I have been strugling with a floating point error while using the Large Eddy Simulation method in CFX 5.6, I wondered if there is any one out here who has used this or if there is any verification work done. I know its a short in the dark, but I am kinda stuck Meri

Hi Meri,
Floating point errors generally mean a very rapid local divergence. Assuming everything else is OK, in a transient problem the normal fix for this is to reduce the timestep size. Glenn |

Glenn, Thanks a lot !, I reduced the time step to 0.0001s for a 2 sec simulation and its working fine.

Hi Meri,
It is normal for an LES simulation to require a rediculously small timestep. Glenn |
