I'm getting an error in solving a porous media (ERROR #001100279 has occurred in subroutine ErrAction. Message: NAME MOD: error finding variable "SPHEATP". What is this variable?

I'm modeling a porous media (composite cylinder in which, both inner and outer cylinder acts as porous media with different properties). Both are defined as domain & then sub-domain to assign different porous resistance. I am using multi-component model since fluid is injected into the domain. I am using CFX 5.7

Thanks in advance. Anurag

Dear Anurag,

SPHEATP is the Specific Heat Capacity at Constant Pressure within CFX-5.7. Since it is missing the fluid/material part, something must have gone wrong during the property calculation.

I advice you to contact your CFX representative/helpdesk and pass your definition file (.def) to them for quicker response. It could be a setup error or that you have found a blatant bug.

hi, i am just conserned, from where i can find .....CFX representative/helpdesk? can you tell me please ..

Dear Carlos, thanks for ur reply. the case i'm dealing is "Isothermal". However, when i changed Heat transfer model option to "none", problem was fixed. I have little doubt about difference between the option "Isothermal" and "none".

Hi,

Your CFX rep is the people you paid your license money from. Talk to whoever is responsible for license purchasing at your establishment.
