Hi All,

Has anyone compiled the phaseFieldFoam solver given in the link https://github.com/11101011/phaseFieldFoam ?

I am getting the following error while compiling

incompressibleTwoPhaseMixture/twoPhaseMixture.C: In constructor ‘Foam::twoPhaseMixture::twoPhaseMixture(const volVectorField&, const surfaceScalarField&, const Foam::IOdictionary&, const Foam::word&)’:
incompressibleTwoPhaseMixture/twoPhaseMixture.C:241:5: error: no matching function for call to ‘Foam::IOdictionary::IOdictionary()’

That solver was developed for OF-2.2. Either downgrade, or find out what changed in the twoPhaseMixture library from 2.2 to 3.0 and update the code of the solver accordingly.

thanks for your quick reply akidess.

actually I am new to openfoam. I am unable to open the library files (with .so extension) in the path opt/openfoam30/platform/linux64gcc... /lib

it is showing the following error " Could not display “libcombustionModels.so”There is no application installed for “shared library” files.
Do you want to search for an application to open this file?"

Hi akidess,

I have downgraded the OpenFoam version to 2.2.0 and the phaseFieldFoam code (https://github.com/11101011) has compiled without any errors. also with the blockMesh command I have generated the geometry successfully. after straightway I entered the command "phaseFieldFoam" and getting the following error

In the usage section of https://github.com/11101011/test.case, the following is written
funkySetFields -time 01) Run the pre-conditioner.
2) Run the actual phase field solver.


what odes it mean ?

This seems to be the important line, and I guess there is some division by zero. Usually, when simulating multiphase flows this is related to a phase fraction of zero somewhere in your domain. So you should check your alpha fields.

The commands you listed

In the usage section of https://github.com/11101011/test.case, the following is written
funkySetFields -time 01) Run the pre-conditioner.
2) Run the actual phase field solver.

tells you, that you have to install swak4Foam and initialize your fields with funkySetFields. I guess, as you are missing this step, your error above is related to that. Running the pre-conditioner is something I never read about as this usually is defined in the fvSolutions dictionary and I have so far never seen that the pre-conditioner is executed as a stand-alone utility. However, you should check the User Manual and read about the solver in the forum and see if you get some hints. The last step is clear, as you already executed the solver

It's a custom solver that comes with a custom preconditioner app.

Allright, I am learning everyday
