wrong token type - expected Scalar, found on line 0 the word 'nan'

Elena89 · July 1, 2013, 02:58

Hi,

I'm trying to simulate a turbulent channel flow with OpenFOAM. Since I'm still quite new to the program I do not understand all the functions completely.

My mesh consists of two parts: one has cell sizes of 2cm*2cm*2cm, the other part has smaller cells with side lengths of 5mm. I am running the case in parallel using the LTSInterFoam solver.

The problem is that after about 1 sec the calculation is stopped due to this error: wrong token type - expected Scalar, found on line 0 the word 'nan'

When I look into the log-file the iterations for U and p are at 1001 each.

Did anyone have this problem before and could tell me what exactly I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks for any help!

see this link to how post in forum

however in brief:
1- post your error log file
2- post your BC, its probable for wrong BC condition
