Hi,

When I activate turbulent dispersion in an axisymmetric diesel spray simulation, get this error:

Can somebody tell me what is this about, and how can this be corrected?

Thanks.

looks like we forgot to change this with the new change in runTime/mesh, Henry?

in dispersionRASModel.C change the line

sm.runTime().lookupObject<compressible::turbulence model>

to

sm.mesh().lookupObject<compressible::turbulencemod el>

and 'wmake libso' in the dieselSpray-dir.

Hi Niklas,

Yes this is a bug in 1.1, you also need to make the eqivalent change in dispersionLESModel.C:
sm.runTime().lookupObject<compressible::lesmodel>

to

sm.mesh().lookupObject<compressible::lesmodel>

I have fixed this for 1.1.1

The above mentioned 'out of temperature range' error happened because of an ill imposed wall temp. bc (I think). I've changed to fixedValue uniform 293 K and it worked.

Hi,

the 'out of temperature range' is a secondary
effect of a 'crashed' run,

look at the courant number 2.1!!!

try keeping the courant number low.

The problem with spray calculations are that if you have large/sudden variation in injection velocity
the added momentum, or energy, can be substantial and you will get this kind of error.
