I was able to simulate a buoyant particle fully immersed in a fluid just setting the acceleration of gravity = 0 and the operating density ( in operating conditions) equals to the fluid density. It works. For your case...have you seen the ansys tutorial about a 2D buoyant box? This is the video of simulation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpFCF-ctMp0 , but you can find the tutorial on web http://www.scribd.com/doc/92954775/F...2d-Falling-Box. |
2D airfoil O Grid- negative volume
Hi,
I'm carrying out a 2D pitching airfoil simulation using dynamic meshing with a "O" Grid.It is a structured mesh. The dynamic conditions i have given were 1) airfoil - rigid body with UDF with pitching over X=0.25 2)interior - deforming with the min and max length scale from zone scale info 3) fluid -deforming with the min and max length scale from zone scale info. The spring constant i gave was 0.001 and convergence tolerance 0.0001 No of iterations 150. The time step tat i used is 0.001. After running the iterations and after about 500 time steps i'm getting the following error negative volume detected dynamic mesh update failed. i have worked around with the spring constant and also with the time step nothing worked. could someone help me out rectify this issue.. thanks in advance, sam |
negative volume - dynamic mesh failure
Hi Sam,
In dynamic mesh problems, the mesh around the solid body keeps deforming during each iteration. Now, when the mesh becomes too distorted that the centroid of the cell lies outside the cell boundary, a negative volume is detected triggering the solver failure. In a structured mesh, cell distortion is always higher than the unstructured mesh. You may tighten the the remeshing criteria i.e. the minimum cell size, skewness ratio etc. however the best way to get rid of the problem is to use "unstructured" (tri/tetrahedral) mesh. This works. |
hi
The message "Note: zone–surface: cannot create surface from sliding interface zone" simply means the boundaries of the non–conformal interfaces match exactly, such that there are no non–overlapping sections on either side of the interface. chek this file for more details https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/156...l/slides/5.pdf |
Please any one help me ..how can L solve this problem which appears to me
( application error in CFD_post error the doesn't exist or is not readable ) So what the reson and what solution? ??? Please. .. |

I have a similar project , but i have a floating box. actually this is a Wave Energy Converter which starts oscillating as a result of wave. I have tried both reducing the time step size and fine meshing but still face the same error as you. dynamic mesh failed. negative volume detected. would you please share your Dynamic mesh setting with us? Thank you in advance. Megan. |
