akhilthik is on a distinguished road
I am performing a CFD based EEXI speed assessment for a vessel. Facing problem while running the simulation , an error is prompting:-
- “virtual disk has no marked cell”. We have used a virtual disk method with inflow specification as inflow velocity plane. Following are the data used for the simulation.
Disk geometry :- 1) Inner radius =0.405 m 2) Outer radius =2.75 m 3) Inflow plane radius =3.025 m 4) Inflow plane offset – 0.55 m
Propeller Diameter = 5.5 m , No of Blades = 5 , RPM = 120.
We have made a cylinder around the virtual disk & also performed volumetric meshing – fine mesh) still its prompting the same error.
Please guide me to resolve this problem.
