BlockMesh error in channel flow
Hi
I am simulating a flow in a channel with cyclic BC and four ribs inside which i have specified as walls. I am getting the following error when i execute the blockMesh.

Check your lock definition - o
Check your lock definition - one block is inside-out.

Sorry what is lock definition
Sorry what is lock definition Jasak. What do you mean by "one block is inside out". All the blocks are inside the channel. Here is my block dic file.

Dear OF Newbie,
The order
Dear OF Newbie,
The order in which you specify the vertices of a block matter. If you look at the user-guide section on using blockMesh, it will show you the order you should specify the vertices in and how that order defines local coordinates, etc. The relevant section of the user guide is here: http://www.opencfd.co.uk/openfoam/do...#x31-1640006.3 You'll have to examine your block definitions for which specific block is incorrect. Good Luck, Mike J. |
Hi
Can anyone explain what
Hi
Can anyone explain what the following error imply: FOAM FATAL ERROR : face 0 in patch 11 does not have neighbour cell face: 4(12 14 13 6)#0 I do have a face opposite to face mentioned in error. Why is blockMesh not recognising it? Thank You |
