Hello,
I got my simulation reults, but problem is that I can not read them:
dimensions [0 2 -2 0 0 0 0];


internalField nonuniform List<scalar>
5963410
(?0E?5v?ɡ8+?5b|?@I{ٹ?C ,?Vm?xl?&!o?)>{?0]?nK/?v,d?!5v?F*]XC?0¿?LG'O?;?%PD??2 ?&4<?2k?#? 'l?f}V֢?( ?!߫?f՞?QK׵?oD

?梉(*? ?WU?=v?o<-?D?FAsЦ?x$?%K?WUIֺ? ??
Has anyone same problem? How can I solve this problem.
Thanks for your time!

Quick tip/idea:
- Open system/controlDict and ensure you have following selection

Code:
writeFormat     ascii;

writeCompression uncompressed;

Hello guin,
Thank you for your tip. write format is binary and write compression is off. I changed them as you told. should I run simulation again? because after change I didnt see any difference in results.
Thanks!

But, please, be careful!

If your mesh has actually 5963410 elements (as it seems from your post) disabling compression may increase a lot the disk demand for your results. Ensure that you have enough free space in your disk before restarting the simulation. Alternatively, you can just write out results using a longer interval or take advantage of purgeWrite keyword (more info at https://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-guide/v6-controldict/)

Yes. If your simulation takes too long and you are only interested in the last results, you can resume it from the last time and let it run for a single additional timestep e.g. (again in system/controlDict):
Code:
startFrom       latestTime;

stopAt            writeNow;
