Error detected by routine MAKDAT CDANAM
 

Hello dears,
do you know what means the error than stop my solver in CFX?
I'm simuling a porous media flowing in a cylindrical die and at the enter of the die, at the top of the entering porous material, I have also air.

The text is:
Error detected by routine MAKDAT
CDANAM = LVAR CDTYPE = INTR ISIZE = 254
CRESLT = OLD

Current Directory : /FLOW/ALGORITHM/ZN1/SYSTEM/VARIABLES

Thank for your aid!

Usually this means something has been left out of the setup, for instance a material property. If you cannot work out what generated the error I would remove the physics one bit at a time and see when the error disappears to identify where the problem comes from.

Thanks for the aid, now I'll try in this way...

Hi, I have found the error: it was really a bad definition in a material property of one component, now it seems to work, thanks!
