Hello, I am trying several matrix solvers on incompressible steady-state flow, and currently using GAMG


I found this thread saying that for parallel computation, PBiCGstab with DILU as preconditioner performs best for pressure



How to choose solvers


However, when I try to implement by myself, according to log, error occurs because my matrix is symmetric while DILU is for asymmetric.


I guess this error occurs because decomposePar seperates mesh into several parts and each processor runs n x n matrix where n is # of cell, while what thread wanted is decomposed N x N matrix into many asymmetric matrix calculation.


How can I change my matrix solver work so? Or is it best to just replace it with DIC preconditioner?
