Divergence in parallel running after case reconstruction

Hi all!
I am running a simulation in a very complex geometry (human lung). Due to computer resources, I sometimes have to share clusters to other shared users. I constantly have to change my running processor number to 36, 72, 108, ... That's why I reconstruct and decompose the case again if I want to use different number of processor. My process is: 1. When someone asks for nodes, I stop my case (running in 108 cores) and reconstructPar -latestTime. 2. Then I decomposePar -latestTime the case to 36 cores and restart. This is when I face a divergence problem. You can refer to the following results. After the second decomposing, my max parallel Courant number is 10.791 at time 0.1424 and keep doubling until divergence. Quote:

Anyone has any idea? Thanks. |

I got the same problem like you got. To solve it, I tried using "adjustTimeStep on" if you are using pimpleFoam solver and fix "maxCo 5.5"(as you want in your case). This option would control the sharp increase in the courant number . By monitoring/ observing delta Time during running the simulation, you can see it return to your previous delat time you used before and the max Co number will return to 5.5 you got before.
I hope it help any one got the same issue in future |
