Hi -

I'm running an external aerodynamics simulation of a leg in a cycling shoe. Previous models worked fine but my new geometry fails when running simpleFoam with this error:

mpirun detected that one or more processes exited with non-zero status, thus causing
the job to be terminated. The first process to do so was:

Process name: [[1404,1],1]
Exit code: 145

In the Log.simpleFoam file for the new geometry (and in the forces.dat file) the forces and moments quickly start to spiral way way out of bounds in just a couple time steps (by E^22) and residuals go up.

Below is the new simpleFoam log. Total force in the x direction in previous models stayed between 0.2 and 1.5 through every time step.

Any idea where I should look for the error?

Code:

Primary job  terminated normally, but 1 process returned
a non-zero exit code.. Per user-direction, the job has been aborted.

mpirun detected that one or more processes exited with non-zero status, thus causing
the job to be terminated. The first process to do so was:

  Process name: [[1404,1],1]
  Exit code:    145

Try writing each timestep out and use your favourite post processor to find where the fields go crazy.
Seeing as the job ran with your previous geometry, I'd suspect that your new geometry is not clean. Have you checked checkMesh results and y+?

edomalley1 is on a distinguished road
OK, it works now! I realized that it was running OK (results bad but solving) when I had layers turned off and it broke when I added layers to snappyHexMesh. So I decided to just make the layers more robust and changed nSurfaceLayers from 1 to 2 and added more external geometry smoothing iterations. Now it works!
