an error problem for a change of boundary condition
 

HI every body,

it's my first time on this forum.:D

I'm trying to change a boundary condition on a wall to put a velocity inlet but I have some problem when I want to use the adjacent cells of the face thread.

Can Anyone help me, I don't understand what is the problem.

I tried to find the problem, and I think it comes from the "F_C0" command.

The error message that it's appear is :

FLUENT received fatal signal (ACCESS_VIOLATION)

Here is my UDF,

#include "udf.h"

}
}
end_f_loop(f, thread)

Thanks for your help !! :)

a simplified issue to solve my problem
 

Here is a simplified UDF. It has no physical sense but it much more readable.

My problem is that I need to use the adjacent cell of face to chek the velocity there, but when I use "F_C0" command for it I have an error message which is :

ANd here is the code :
If anyone have an idea, I'll take it !

Thanks.......

Can I call an adjacent cell with an other way ?
 

I have no answer up to now.

So I change my question to be helped one day...:(

Can I call an adjacent cell with an other way or must I use C_F0 ?

Hello,

In Micro (dudx = C_U_G(c0,thread)[0]) thread is the cell thread not face thread. The cells on either side of a face may or may not belong to the same cell thread. If a face is on the boundary of a domain, then only c0 exists. ( c1 is undefined for an external face). Alternatively, if the face is in the interior of the domain, then both c0 and c1 exist.
There are two macros, THREAD_T0(t) and THREAD_T1(t), that can be used to identify cell threads that are adjacent to a given face f in a face thread t.

This may be helpful to u.

I understood now !
 

Thank you very much Banty :), I have not seen that when I wrote my UDF.
It works perfectly now ! :D

thank you !

boundary condition problems
 

i wrote a udf for a boundary condition with mass fraction ,but when i want to initialize it write me : error: fluent receive fatal .....
....
....
...

i tried keep memory...[yes]
and solve/expert/ save gradient ? to #t

this is my udf

/* my condition is rearanged as ma=map-(D/jv)*(dma/dy)*/



#include "udf.h"



DEFINE_PROFILE(frac,t,i)
{
real ma=0.0002; /*initialization of mass fraction */
real grad=0.0002;/*initialization of gradient */
cell_t c;
face_t f;

begin_f_loop(f,t)
{
c=F_C0(f,t);
THREAD_T0(t);


grad=C_YI_RG(c,t,i)[1];

ma=0.000055-0.00002199301*grad;

F_PROFILE(f,t,i)=ma;
}
end_f_loop(f,t)
}

please ,help me .

thank you a lot

You define noting with the command THREAD_T0(t) in your code.

First you have to define a thread name that we point on it with the command C_THREAD_T0 and after you have to define it.
Then for all command start with "C_" you have to use the cell thread that you have defined (here the name of the thread is "cell_thread". you can choose a shorter name if you want) and not the face thread.

#include "udf.h"

DEFINE_PROFILE(frac,t,i)
{
real ma=0.0002; /*initialization of mass fraction */
real grad=0.0002; /*initialization of gradient */
cell_t c;
face_t f;
Thread *cell_thread; /* the star is to say that we will point on it */

begin_f_loop(f,t)
{
c=F_C0(f,t);
cell_thread=THREAD_T0(t); /* the cell thread adjacent to the face thread */


grad=C_YI_RG(c,cell_thread,i)[1];

ma=0.000055-0.00002199301*grad;

F_PROFILE(f,t,i)=ma;
}
end_f_loop(f,t)
}

I hope that helps you. ;)

boundary
 

Dear tsi ,
thank you for your information,i try it but it write me the same problem ,also i changed solver to density based because it mentioned in UDF manual

'C YI RG can be used only in the density-based solver.'

can another persone help me ?

thx
