Default Error: invalid argument [1]: improper list

Hi!

I have a very large mesh (ab. 2.000.000 cells) with k-w, no energy eq. that runs not very stable. However, it runs

But, when I interupt iterating, save the file, take a look at the results and start again, Fluent gives following message:

Error: GENERAL-CAR-CDR: invalid argument [1]: improper list

Error Object: #f

When I read case and data again, the iteration works fine... until I turn on energy eq. or another turbulence model. Once, i run it laminar, and when i turn on any turb. model, the error message came...

So any help is highly appreciated!!!

Ralf

If I am understanding you properly then I occasionally get this problem. I just re-read case and data then forget about it. Has never caused me any problems.

Hi!

thanks for answer, but it didn't worked. Could it be because of the error message fluend gives, when it reades the grid:

Warning: Number of nodes read (1057672) does not match number referenced (1056748).

Resetting counter to match the number referenced.

Ther is somewere a volume, that has only one face meshed, and that is not exported - could that be the reason??

When I define the monitors and then change some paramters the monitor definitions sometimes get messed up. It looks like you don't have similar situation.

Hi!

I thing the problem is solved, at least it didn't appear any more.

I don't know, what is different - i worked on the grid again and made it really good quality mesh (ab 95% of the cells have a skewness below 0.2

I read the mesh again, iterated, saved, turned on energy eq. iterated again and the error appears again

Than I read the file again, iterated untill convergence, turned on energy eq. and continued to iterate was no problem!! Until now, the file runs very fine!

So, what ever the problem of fluent is - it seems to me to be a little random. However, hoping that "&*'?"§$ error will not appear anymore!

gr135 is on a distinguished road
Hey,

I happen to get the same error in fluent when I try to load MHD add-on module after selecting non-premixed combustion.

Can someone point out to why is it happening?
