Floting point error.

May 10, 2006, 19:22

I created a mesh in Gambit and read it in Fluent. When I tried to display the grid it gave me an error messege: 'Floating point error: divide by zero'. I tried to set up the problem in Fluent regardless, but when I tried to solve it gives me the same message. I'm sure there are no problems with the mesh as I have run it with no errors on another machine, I'm assuming that the problem is my with laptop.

I know that this is delt with in the FAQ section but I couldn't find an answer to my question there.

It would be greatly appreciated if someone could give me some advice on how to solve this problem. Thanks!

The error might be caused by ur graph card driver. You can run Fluent by input "fluent 2d -driver msw" in command window.
