Hi all,

I am running a simulation with olaFlow, and I have a problem. The simulation stops each timestep that it writes the results and there is not any error, if I restart the simulation, it continues without problem till it writes the next timestep and stops!!!
I did set the stopAt to be end time and the endtime sets to 25, but it keeps stopping even in timesteps less than 1 minutes!

Here is my control Dict:

/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\

FoamFile

version 2.0;
format ascii;
location "system";
class dictionary;
object controlDict;
}

// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //

application olaFlow;

startFrom latestTime;

startTime 0;

stopAt endTime;

endTime 25;

deltaT 0.001;

writeControl adjustableRunTime;

writeInterval 12;//0.05;

purgeWrite 0;

writeFormat ascii;

writePrecision 7;

writeCompression compressed;//off;

timeFormat general;

timePrecision 6;

runTimeModifiable yes;

adjustTimeStep yes;

maxCo 0.5;
maxAlphaCo 0.5;

maxDeltaT 0.025;


I cannot find where the problem is, so I would appreciate if anyone can help me.

Best,
Shima.
