multiRegionHeater error

ordinary · April 9, 2019, 12:01

Hello,

I have a case which is similar to the multiRegionHeater case: There are two incompressible cross flows and two solid wall regions. chtMultiRegionFoam command gives me an incomprehensible error:

Code:

 Floating point exception (core dumped)

I checked boundary conditions. I know that floating point exception means something is divided by 0. But where is it? There is not any clue.

Regards,

Hi Ordinary, were you able to identify the issue with your simulation? I am working with chtMultiRegionFoam. I am just trying to simulate the compressible flow of air within two hotplates. It is a 2D Simulation.

I tried to run a dummy case, in order to understand if the solver is running.

PIMPLE
{

}
I am getting the same result as you.
PIMPLE algorithm finds no convergences defined for all regions and It shifts to PISO. And finally a Floating Point error.

I rechecked my boundary conditions.

Can anyone help me understand what can be the issue? I am very new to OpenFoam.

Hello,

Unfortunately this topic moved to my unfinished works long time ago. I will definitely continue in the future.
