Restart problems!!
 

Hi, STAR-CD experts!

I am in trouble with the 'restart option'.

I am trying to restart my calculation from the file 'star.pst'. The initial conditions are seemed to be well imposed after loading 'star.pst' file. But the problem is, Although I select the 'continue' option, the ITERation number (ITER) is set to be 1 at the first step. I want to start from the last ITER.

What I gave to STAR-PRO as follows,

> rdata,initial,b,star.pst,continue

Please give me any comments or suggestions what I am missing.

Thanks,

KK

"rdat resta"

Dear Balduin,

Thank you for the quick reply.

I want to proceed the simulation with new boundary values from the previous field data as the initial condition. That's why I am not using 'rdat resta'.

Moreover, in my scalfn.f, I use some statement including 'ITER' and I do not want to initialize the ITER to be 1 at the fisrt step of the restart calculation.

Thanks,

KK

"switch 11 y"

What does switch 11 does please?

SWITCH 11 Y: Initial field restart without resetting iteration/time-step number

Ok, thank you very much
