rhoSimpleFoam pipe flow
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone,

I'm new to OpenFOAM and I am modeling a circular pipe using an axi-symmetric mesh for compressible turbulent flow. When I run the case using rhoSimpleFoam I get the following error message:

// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //
Create time

Create mesh for time = 0

I believe the cause of the error is in my boundary conditions, which I have attached, however I am not sure how to proceed from here. Any help that could be offered would be greatly appreciated.
