Dear OpenFOAM users,

I am doing a study on computational capabilities of GGI, AMI and MRF using a small wind turbine. I have started this project with a test case and so far I am successful in running the simulation 'pimpleDyMFoam' with single processor i.e., Serial run. Thanks to the entire community.

Now I am trying to simulate the same case to save the computational time using cluster, and as part of simulation it went very smooth, but while reconstructing the case I am getting the following error:

Face zone name cylinderInletZone for GGI patch cylinderInlet not found. Please check your GGI interface definition.

I have seen all the posts regarding this error for solution but I could not get the solution. I have checked my boundary file as well as my setBatch file. Please let me know the possible errors which you came across. I followed the procedure as stared below.

1. Created seperate mesh regions for bot rotating and non rotating parts and merged them together using mergeMeshes.

2. Renumbered the case and changed the patch names to GGI wherever required.

3. Then the toposet has been run using setSet -batch setBatchGgi (This and boundar files has been attached) and the zones are defined with setsToZones -noFlipMap

4. Decomposed the case using simple method.

5. potentialFoam and pimpleDyMFoam has been used.

6. reconstructParMesh here I am getting the error

Mesh motion detected. Reconstruct motion points


--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Face zone name cylinderInletZone for GGI patch cylinderInlet not found. Please check your GGI interface definition.

From function label ggiPolyPatch::zoneIndex() const
in file meshes/polyMesh/polyPatches/constraint/ggi/ggiPolyPatch.C at line 815.


The boundary, change dictionary and Topo files are

boundary.tar.gz

changeDictionaryDict.tar.gz

setBatchGgi.tar.gz

It would be really of a great help if you can give me some guidance regarding the above issue.

Thank you all.
