Stubborn epsilonm residual
Hello,
I am running RANS simulations using twoPhaseEulerFoam. While all other residuals decrease with time, that is not the case for epsilonm, which tends to stay constant. This is typical: http://i.imgur.com/n3xFYCK.png I noticed that the fluidisedBed tutorial exhibits the same behavior. Is this expected then? Any clues as to why this is happening would be appreciated. |
Hello Albert,
did you find a solution for your problem? I see exactly the same behavior. It can also be reproduced by changing the water velocity to something > 0 in the twoPhaseEulerFoam bubbleColumn tutorial. Thank you Joachim |
Hello - not really. We decided that the simulations had converged based on plots of the quantities we were interested in at locations we were interested in.

Thank you for your answer. Perhaps somebody else has any idea?

I filed a bug at the "official" bug tracker of OpenFAOM: http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1916
It looks like it's also not clear to them what causes this problem. |
Greetings to all!
I haven't checked the values and calculations, but here's what I know on this topic:
Best regards, Bruno |
FYI: I was curious and took a look into this. See comment #5684: http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1916#c5684
