Hi,

I tried to test the new solver (successfully compiled from provided source code for OpenFOAM 2.1.x) on one of the tutorial cases, but it does not work.

I tried to run the hemispherical body (http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...haseChangeFoam, case 1), but it always diverges at some point at 70ms. I tried to run with constant time step and at 69ms Courant No blows up. I switched to auto-timestepping with max. Co. 0.05, it goes a little bit further, but still crashes.

Has anyone managed to run this particular case for 20s (or more), as it is in the controlDict?

Generally, when running I notice that there are significant oscillations in pressure field and I also get phase change (cavitation) at the slip wall, which does not seem reasonable...

I have not modified any of the tutorial settings or the solver itself...

Any ideas on that?

Thanks in advance.
