Running Error using Compressible OpenFoam Parallel mode
 

Hi All,

I'm new with OpenFoam and I'm struggling to run compressible flow in Parallel mode in the environment of Centos 6.5.

I'm trying to run tutorial case:
~/OpenFOAM-2.2.2/tutorials/compressible/rhoSimplecFoam/squareBend
using 8 core and I keep getting error message. If I run using 1 core, I dont get the error message. The error message only happens with multiple cores even with just 2 core. :confused::confused::confused:

I thought I would be due to the MPI but when I run other tutorial case with incompressible flow, I can make it with multiple cores. Example:
~/OpenFOAM-2.2.2/tutorials/incompressible/simpleFoam/motorBike
For motoroBike case, I can run it with 6 cores.

Here is the error message (some parts of the error message in the log file) that I got when I tried to run compressible flow:

-- - -- - -

and Here is the Allrun file that I used to run it:

Do I have any installation problem in my server??:confused: :confused: :confused:
Do I have setting problem in my compressible run???? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Why do I have problem in running compressible flow but not in incompressible flow????

I would appreciate any help ...

Thank you very much in advance.
