Phi file missing in parallel run
 

Hi everyone,

I am simulating different tubes with fluid running through them in SimpleFoam. I am doing so with 8 processors.

the processors 0 till 7 all worked fine reaching the time that I wanted but sometimes one of them would not have the file Phi at one time and it is not consistent as to which one.

e.g.:
model_1, processor_3, time_10 did not have Phi but i just reran it without any changes and it generated Phi this time

model_3, processor_2, time_35 did not have Phi but i just reran it without any changes and it generated Phi this time BUT for the second run, processor_5, time_310 did not have Phi

I am confused as to why this is happening inconsistently.

Cheers,
