Fluent simulation problem & Gambit "database"error
 
Fluent:

I am running simulations involving a symmetric airplane geometry (only running sim. on half of the plane due to symmetry). I get through about 1500 simulations and look at the results and, on the plane, the only results that appear are near the edges. I am thinking maybe it is a problem with the volume being water tight.

Gambit:

I haven't tried to load my model for a few months now and got this error when trying to open it:

"Error: Unable to read format of database (version 2.4.4). The current format is version 2.3.14."

If anyone can help with either of my issues I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

for gambit problem you can try to import the mesh from fluent that means import *.cas file in gambit

Gambit: Sounds like there might be a problem with your Gambit release. Sounds like you made the geometry in a newer version than you currently have... Not sure the fix. Check your with your IT guys on the Gambit version (current release is 2.4.6 from 2007)

Fluent: Sounds like a problem with your setup, need to give us more information. It shouldn't be a water tight problem, or you wouldn't have a volume mesh. Sounds like a boundary condition problem to me.
