Tutorial movingBlockRBF not working in foam-extend-4.1

sita · February 7, 2020, 04:04

Hi all,

I just tried running the movingBlockRBF tutorial in foam-extend-4.1 (Ubuntu 18.04), and it crashes after some 3.5 seconds, on a floating point exception. Now I happen to also have foam-extend-3.1 installed under Scientific Linux 7.3, and the very same tutorial runs fine here.

So, does anyone know whether something in this tutorial has changed (I couldn't find anything up to now, but perhaps I just missed it)? Or could it be something in foam-extend-4.1?

Many thanks,
Sita

Hi,
I also had a similar experience with the channelFoam tutorial (channel395). It blow out after a few steps. I still don't have any idea why is it so. Improperly updated tutorials while switching to new release, or a bug in the solver.. No idea.
Does anyone has any idea some of the cases don't work in the new release?
