Hello all,
I have configured a transient sonicFoam run in parallel to carry out 50 iterations with a timestep of 1e-6, then increase the timestep to 5e-6 and continue the simulation through completion (2s). This was done to avoid divergence with the larger timestep in the first few iterations while saving computational time overall. I have noticed a strange effect on the nomenclature of the time files, though: all of the folders with t > 1s begin to increment by 1e-12. This is causing difficulty for my post-processing scripts. When I look at the /unform/time file in each time directory, I see the following: Code:
value 1.00004; name "1.000040000002"; index 199998; deltaT 5e-06; deltaT0 5e-06; Code:
writeFormat ascii; writePrecision 6; writeCompression uncompressed; timeFormat general; timePrecision 6; Thanks in advance, Dan |
