Hi everyone,
I am doing some simulation using chtMultiRegionFoam. I created a mesh with three regions using ICEM, and then run a simple case. everything is good. Then I tried another case, in which everything is the same except that I used groovyBC to set up the temperature profile of main air inlet. Then simulation is running without any problem. While when I tried to check the result using paraFoam, the paraview didn't work and I got this error message: Quote:
while I believe that the openFOam and paraView are both installed in root/opt folder Is this the possible reason? Anyone can help? thanks a lot! |

Hi,
Have you created the three separate files for paraview post-processing, for the three different regions? Dhruv. Quote:

Actually, I checked the former simulation (the one I didn't using groovyBC), even though I got the same error message, I still can open the result. It is so strange! |

Some questions: a) is hat you wrote in the original posting ALL the output? b) are you REALLY sure that the case is the same apart from groovyBC? Try the following: comment out groovyBC and put in "type zeroGradient". Also comment out the libs-entry in controlDict. See if paraview still fails c) have you tried the builtin OpenFOAM-reader in paraview? Just create one stub-file foo.foam in the case and when opening that it should recognize all the regions |
