buoyantSimpleFoam Message error
 
Hello Foamers,

Im a beginner. I use OpenFoam 1.5 on Ubunto...
I would like to use the solver buoyantSimpleFoam for a case, so I started the tutorial. But i have this error message when i launch the solver

I think it's probably due to the installation of the librairies, but im not really into it, so i would like to have a confirmation and the solution to solve the problem..
Thanks

maybe you can post the output of foamInstallationTest

if this is working without errors, try running icoFoam tutorial first. I also had problems with buoyantSimpleFoam and then I shifted to OF-1.5.x

Hello Rishi
First, thanks for your answer...
I started by icoFoam, without any problems. I've tried severals tutorials solvers (icoFoam, turbFoam, buoyantFoam) and they worked but not buoyantSimpleFoam. And it is precisely the solver i need for my study:(

Here you are the results of my installation test. There are 2 No, but i dont know what it means ...

a guess: possibly epsilon is initialised to ZERO in 0 directory. Epsilon has to be non-zero.

try running the buoyantSimpleFoam with turbulence turned OFF and see if it runs.

Khelian973 April 15, 2009 08:01
Epsilon wasnt to ZERO and with the turbulence off, i have the same message...i double checked all my files to see a mistake but i dont find one...
is it possible to send you the case, and you try to run it for me ?... if it works on your computer, i will know that it's from my installation (if you have time of course)
thanks for helping me

hellorishi April 15, 2009 10:45
Hi Kyian

I saw your case. The problem is that the tutorial has one small error. P is initialised to 0.

Changing "p" file
internalField Uniform 10000;
solves the problem

hope this solves your problem.

regards
Rishi

Khelian973 April 16, 2009 04:57
hi, Thanks Rishi
the tutorial runs perfectly

Khelian973 May 25, 2009 04:07
Hi Foamers,

After the tutorials on buoyantSimpleFoam i've tried to run a simple case, already use in another solver (simpleFoam), but adding temperature in the flow.
This time the solver stops after reading the thermophysical properties. I dont understand how it's possible. I created the case copying the tutorial case of buoyantSimpleFoam.
If you have any suggestions...
Thansk in advance
Kyian

One possible problem between different solvers is the use of Pressure units.

Kindly check the pressure units in both solver. It might be a cause of problem. Not sure.
