Hello everyone,

I am trying to solve a problem with following reaction.
Due to help from 2 other threads I have reached a point where the solver starts iterations, however it exits in the first time step.

Any clues why this could be heppening?

Thanks,
Rachel

According to your log you have a syntax error in your sprayProperties. Might be a problem.

Thanks Mattijs,

I was trying to use 3 sprays in the system. Hence I modified sprayProperties.

Now i have switched back to single spray, to test the chemistry. However there is something else thats going wrong and segmentation fault is not that helpful.

Here is the new log

niklas will become famous soon enoughniklas will become famous soon enough
my guess is that your timestep is too large.

200 m/s injection velocity and 0.25 ms integration step.
that means your parcels will travel approx 5 cm.
The momenum transfer to the gas will be too high.

Thanks everybody,

It was a problem of setting the right initial/boundary conditions. Since the domain had inlet & outlet, I used BC similar to reactingFoam (from wiki) and then used dieselFoam solver. Now awaiting the results...

Thanks,
Rachel
