Good day, everyone!

(A)

* I am using ANSYS Fluent 14.0 to solve an incompressible steady-state turbulent wind flow problem around a group of buildings.

* I desire to configure the model in my PC operating on Windows OS & send to a remote Linux High Performance Computer (HPC) for faster processing.

* I have used udf (Interpreted) to define the inflow velocity, turb. kinetic energy & dissipation rate profiles.

* I have also been able to set up the fluent.cas & .dat files in the Journal file, and configured the pbs-script.

* But the job would not execute when I sent it to the remote system for processing (I keep getting error message).

* However, when I specified fixed values for the inlet parameters, the program ran.

* I guess the problem is with the udf. I could not write the necessary Fluent text commands for the udf in the Journal file.

* I tried to compile the udf but this also failed.

* I read from ANSYS Fluent udf manual that automatically compiling udfs is not supported on mixed Windows/Linux systems.

* Could someone. pls help me out with the necessary commands.

(B).

* In the present Journal file I intend to modify , the solution is terminated by the use of no of iterations using 'solve/iterate n'.

* I desire to use Residuals to terminate the solution.

* Pls what are the commands for effecting this in the Journal file?

Thanking you, in advance.
