When i run my case...crashhh
 
5 Attachment(s)
Dear Foamers,
I am doing an air jet simulation , my geometry is OK according to checkMesh. I ran my case and after moving about the start way of my simulation, the running had some high and crazy results, I do not why? .. can any body helps me please because I tried with differents fvSolutions and fvSchemes files but not got good results .
I tried differents ways, first only without rig, then without stayl and asimsails but crash too
If somebody can i help me...
Thanks in advanced
Simón

Hello,

CheckMesh seems to be fine, but look at this

Mesh non-orthogonality Max: 84.6841 average: 22.4909
*Number of severely non-orthogonal faces: 1495.
Non-orthogonality check OK.
<<Writing 1495 non-orthogonal faces to set nonOrthoFaces

You should check the location of these cells in paraFoam (select include sets), if they are in a boundary layer 84 degress can cause some problems.
Can you also put the log file from the solver to see how it crashes?

Thanks Ignacio
Attached the file forces.dat ,you will look that the pressure results growing very fast around Time 100, really dont crash the case but the results are not good.
Attached non-orthogonal file...about that how is possible get better this??? maybe in fvSolution:

SIMPLE
{
nNonOrthogonalCorrectors 4????????????????????????????????????????????????;
pRefCell 0;
pRefValue 0;
}

Thanks a lot.

Hola Simon,

Hablo Espanol, pero te respondo en ingles para que sea mas facil para los demas ayudarte.

In paraFoam do: Properties tree > Select Include Sets > A new icon will appear in Mesh Parts box, select it > Apply.

I guess 4 non-orthogonal correctors is fine. But you can always increase it till.. lets say 15. The simulation will stop when the variable reaches the tolerance that you define, so it wont increase a lot the computational time.

What did you use to create the mesh? ICEM? snappyHexMesh?
if you used ICEM you can use the option of improving orthogonality automatically.

Thanks Ignacio
Now i can check nonortogonal faces
I try run the case with nNonOrthogonalCorrectors 4 or more and then I will tell you the results
I did the mesh with Pointwise, I will try getting better the mesh in Pointwise and I will run the case with nNonOrthogonalCorrectors 4 or more and then I will tell you the results.
Tnaks for everything
