Hello Foamers,

I'm trying to use icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam to study the behaviour of solid particle in a cyclone.
I have divided my problem in two steps:
1) Use simpleFoam to the steadystate solution in the cyclone
2) Having the flowfield I would like to use icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam to compute the particles trajectories.
Now, everything seems to work fine until, during the execution, icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam get stuck here :

Time = 0.31865

Evolving kinematicCloud

Solving3-D cloud kinematicCloud

Cloud: kinematicCloud injector: model1
    Added 2 new parcels

without any error messages.

when I increase the value of

parcelsPerSecond 1000;

in the "kinematicCloudProperties", the solver get stuck erlier (or the inverse, if the value is decreased it get stuck later in the computation).

If anyone has any idea to help I would be great.

I attach the files for the RANS and the particle tracking. To run the complete case you only need to execute Run.

the attached files work with OFv2012 but i get the same problem with OFv8.
