Hi All,
for simulating my case using with interDymFoam solver I just changed the mesh of sloshingTank2D case, I attached my case here. ( please do blockMesh before starting).
before running the case I initialized the velocity by running the case with potentialFoam solver.

but when I want to start the run with interDyMFoam I get the below strange error.

could anybody explain the reason?

Greetings Marhamat,

All I could figure out was:
  • The gravity is wrongly oriented. It's set on the Z axis, when it should be on the Y axis.
  • The "setFieldsDict" should have this:
    Code:
    box ( -0.5 -5 -5 ) ( 0.5 5 5 );
    The only difference is the last 5 was a 0.
I'd suggest you check the "multiphase/interDyMFoam/ras/testTubeMixer" tutorial for ideas as well.

Another suggestion is to do gradual modifications of the original case. From the attached case, it looks like you've tried to do all modifications in a single go, which for someone not experienced with OpenFOAM this is simply a bad idea

I think you should do the steps somewhat like this (also know as divide-and-conquer):
  1. Change the form of the original geometry, but only the outer shell. Preserve the scale, mesh resolution and "setFieldsDict", so that you don't trigger other problems.
  2. Run with this new shape and check if anything needs to be calibrated, such as the initial step and so on.
  3. After this is dominated, add the hole in the middle and run with the new geometry. Calibrate as necessary.
  4. Change the "setFieldsDict" to the ones you want. Run with the new initial field. Calibrate as necessary.
  5. You can now try initializing with potentialFoam or any other application and run again... but I don't think it's necessary.
  6. Once all of the above have been dominated, change the scale of the geometry to the size you need. Changing mesh resolution might be necessary at this point...
After you've done these steps, it'll be easier to help you! And if you share the steps in between, it will make it easier easier!

Best regards,
Bruno
