CyclicAMI: Problems with pressure field
1 Attachment(s)
Hello,
I am working with cyclicAMI boundary condition. But on the edges to other bcs I am getting weird results for the pressure field. I have attached a screenshot to make my problem clear. And that is the content of .../0/p: PHP Code:

I have a similar problem with my pressure field when I use cyclicAMI. Can I ask why you didn't just use cyclic conditions?
|
Hey,
the cyclic Boundary condition never worked for me in this model. I had always mismatching problems with the mesh. (I am using Salome 6.3 for the mesh generation). But with AMI it seemed to work. Though it looks like that OpenFoam sets some default boundary conditions on the edges. Does anyone knows how to solve this issue? |
Similar issue
Hey Thomas,
Did you manage to solve your problem? I am having a very similar issue. Javier |
cyclicAMI pressure boundary
I have also the same problem! does somebody have any idea or could comment on it, if it would be a bug?!
|
Hey,
no sorry, I never solved the problem. I just neglected it in the end.... But let me know if you find a solution! |
I successfully used cyclicAMIs for turbomachinery flow simulation. I don't know, if you are using MRF. However, I experienced promblems when not correctly defining the "nonRotatingPatches" in the MRFDict.

I am having a very similar issue too.....

cyclicAMI for nonConformal meshes
Hello All,
Did anybody face an issue while using cyclicAMI on nonConformal Meshes? My case is an impeller with volute also. Impeller is having pure Hexhedral and volute is having tetrahedral grid. I am giving cyclicAMI boundary condition for those interfaces. I am giving mass flow at outlet and totalPressure at inlet. By using the above settings, Mass is not balancing. The issue is, data is not transferring between these two interfaces. because of cyclicAMI. And also Temperature values are not coming correct at outlet. Actually Ggi (OpenFOAM-1.6-Extd) is working fine with these settings. but here, Compressible solver with MRF is not available in this version. I modified the code. But there are some other issues. So, Finally I came back to OpenFOAM current version (i.e) OF-2.1.1. Please help me, If anybody success with cyclicAMI boundary conditon. Regards Prasant. |
Can you post your boundary file and the weithing factors for your case?

No solution
Hey Foamers...
Exactly the same here... and not solution. The edges take the pressure (atmospherical in my cases) and stays in a fixed value during all the simulation. This creates a non realistic field. Best regards, Victor Mendoza |
Hi,
I am having the same problem with the pressure field. I already tested it on a straight channel with cyclicAMI and cyclic BC's. Only with the cyclic BC the pressure field is correctly calculated. My geometry is similar to the geometry posted by Thomas. So in my case only cyclicAMI can work. Does anyone have an idea what to do? Thanks |
Hi all,
any news about cyclic AMI Problem? |
