warning when building a new solver
 
Dear all,

When I build a new solver, after "wmake", there are some warnings as followed.However I can run the new solver, why do these warning come out? Do they matter?

Could you give me some comments?

Greetings Ye,

I'll quote myself from a post I made back in 2010 :cool::

Bruno,

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! By the way, can I ask you one more question? Now I want to simulate the unsteady flow of the 2D airfoil in stall condition with pisoFoam solver. In Openfoam, should I start the simulation from original initial value or from the converged result obtained from steady solver simpleFoam as Fluent?

Regards,

Ye

Hi Ye,

Not exactly the same topic... but OK, I think I know the answer:
  1. I think you can use pisoFoam directly, if you are willing to wait longer for the solution.
  2. If not willing to wait, I suppose you can use simpleFoam. Check the tutorials folder, "incompressible/pisoFoam" sub-folder and you should find a few examples on this topic!
Best regards,
Bruno

Hi, Bruno

Thank you for your quick reply. I will try it!

Regards,
Ye
