Problem running pimpleFoam in magnus effect simulation
1 Attachment(s)
First off, I am using openFoam8.
This is to do a simulation using pimpleFoam to simulate a rotating boundary layer around a cylinder in order to produce the magnus effect. My goal is to eventually incorporate this into a car simulation, in lieu of rotating meshes at the wheels, but I digress. I modelled the cylinder in solidworks, and get a nice mesh with 2 boundary layers via snappyHexMesh. PotentialFoam runs okay. But when I run pimpleFoam, I get this error: Code:

problem solved, I think
It turns out that I have to be careful to put the #includeEtc "caseDicts/setConstraintTypes" line just after 'boundaryField' line, and not before, in each of the 0/* files.
This always seems to happen, that after trying hard to solve a problem and then giving up and bothering people for help, I find the answer. Not Murphy's law, but there must be a name for it. But I will assuredly have more problems! |
