Hi everyone,

I'm running into an error running simpleFoam (this problem also happens with icoFoam).

Casefile can be found at the following address:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5R...it?usp=sharing

I'm getting the error pasted below. The log file also reveals that the solution is diverging which I suspect why this is happening. checkMesh looks good, boundary conditions appear sensible. Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Hi,

Obviously you've got diverging solution. Look at all those 1001 in log file, it is default maximum number of iteration of the matrix solver after which it will give up even it doesn't get the solution within given tolerances.

I'm not quite get from the case files what you are trying to do but I've attached archive with the settings that can bear your setup. But the velocities in the narrow part of the mesh are around 4 km/s so I guess it doesn't make much sense.

I've attached only archive of the system folder as I've made no changes in other folders.

Thanks alexeym!

It's running for me up to timestep 19.8 so obviously this is a big improvement. Basically, I'm just trying to measure permeability across this mesh by sampling pressure difference and flux through the two planes that are my inlets and outlets. Perhaps reducing the velocity bc at the inlet will reduce the absolute velocity in the narrow section but I imagine relatively speaking, the velocity would still be this high. Would reducing the initial velocity amount help the solution converge?

Well,

You can try to estimate velocity in the narrow part from cross-section areas ratio.

As you are trying to run simulation in laminar case, you should also estimate Reynolds number to see if it is really so.

And answering your question: yes, it will help.

I have a similar problem,I am running the MRFSimplefoam with of2.1 to simulate the 3D wind turbine, but it cause an error as I pasted

your first step : time step already diverge, you can have a check about your mesh and your boundary condition settings

how ablout the mesh quality? if bad,does the problem lie in the volume range or the 3 non-orthogonal faces or something eles?

Hi,I now use Gambit to generate mesh, boundary condition doesnt change and it can run more than 150 steps with the first time steps continuty errors OK. I paste the log file,could you tell me where the problem is?the eorror messege is

Hi I am using simpleIbFoam, each time I run it shows this error. The checkMesh looks ok. Can someone help with this issue ? Thanks in advance !!

Anamitra:

It looks like you need to double check your BCs and ICs.

Also, it's taking a lot of iterations to converge your pressure, you might consider a different numerical method if your BC/ICs are okay.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply!! Could you suggest what changes are possible in the boundary conditions, I am still looking for it.

I am not very sure what factors can cause the floating point exception. I am solving a case of external flow around a cuboid (with Immersed boundary) placed around the centre of the flow domain.

Pressure looks like this:
internalField nonuniform List<scalar>
256000
(long list found from mapping fields)

boundaryField
{
ibsimplevg
{
type immersedBoundary;
refValue uniform 0;
refGradient uniform 0;
fixesValue no;
setDeadCellValue yes;
deadCellValue 0;
value nonuniform 0();
}
inlet
{
type zeroGradient;
}
outlet
{
type zeroGradient;
}
sides
{
type symmetryPlane;
}
wall_plate
{
type zeroGradient;
}
top
{
type zeroGradient;
}
}
