Hi all,

I'm running the following case with chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam, with this set up.
  • Two solid Regions
  • same Material
  • 2d Case
  • all Walls set to zeroGradient except for empty patches
  • one solid region with full heat Spource (10 W)
  • the other region with a fixed T value on a patch

The case takes at least 140000(!!!) iteration to get to convergence.
Should it be related to the fact that on one region a Dirichlet condition is missing?
Probably the answer is yes as for the fact that if I set at least a patch on each region with a fixed value, solution converges quickly.
So, what is the right BC to set the patches in order to simulate the patches to be adiabatic?

Thanks a lot

PS: the case is downloadable at thie thread
bug for wallHeatFlux OF5.x-dev?

OF version 4.x on bluCFD-CORE 2016.1
