Cannot find directory 'polyMesh/sets' in times 0 down to constant

musabai · February 8, 2015, 14:25

Hi everyone,

I am new to OpenFoam. I am trying to run a example,(lagrangian-coalChemistryFoam-simplifiedSiwek), from tutorials using OpenFoam 2.3.1. But I get foam fatal error after typing "coalChemistryFoam" in terminal.

The error says " Cannot find directory 'polyMesh/sets' in times 0 down to constant "

Does any one know how to solve this problem? Thank you very much.

Hi,

In the folder there is Allrun script which should be used to run the tutorial. If you look inside, you can see that before coalChemistryFoam you have to run blockMesh and topoSet utilities.

Hello I am new in OpenFOAM and I performed some tutorials. But I have a concern that is: I would like to make a Eulerian and Lagrangian computation of burning pulverized coal in a furnace; but I saw no suitable solver and I know not how. please one of you could he help me?
