Dear Foamers,

I am facing a problem concerning a parallel computation in foam-extend-4.0 on openSUSE 42.1 Leap.
I want to investigate VIV of a circular cylinder using the pimpleDyMFoam solver.
The calculation works fine using 1 processor.
When I try do to a parallel computation using
Code:
mpirun -np 4 pimpleDyMFoam -parallel
the simulation stops ("hangs-up") during calculation without any error.

I already did a parallel computation with pisoFoam and this worked perfectly.

This are the last lines of the log.mpirun-file (whole log-file in attachment):

Code:

The simulation starts at the beginning using 4 processors, but immediately after the beginning 3 processors stop "working" and only 1 processor has 100% load. The simulation remains stuck in this situation.

I attached also the whole case I am using.

If want to run the case in parallel just execute

Code:
./Allrun_par
in the case-directory.

For 1 processor execute

Code:
./Allrun
If you need further information to solve my problem just let me know.

Kind regards,

icab

I am facing similar problem for interDyMFoam with Foam-Extend 4.0.
