Hello,

I'm doing simulation for tidal turbine in ansys and openFoam. I completed simulation in ansys and now doing in openfoam. Im new to openfoam so i'm following the tutorials. I converted icem mesh to openfoam which have two domains stator and rotor. I want to use MRF modeling for rotor domain. I'm using simpleFoam solver with fvOptions of MRF modeling but i got the error,
Error message.
No MRF models present

Creating finite volume options from "system/fvOptions"

Selecting finite volume options model type MRFSource


--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Unknown Model type MRFSource

From function option::New(const word&, const dictionary&, const fvMesh&)
in file fvOption/fvOption.C at line 86.

FOAM exiting

I dont know how to fix this. I search it in this forum but couldn't get proper solution for this. Please help me to fix this problem.

fvOptions file is,

Hi,

Have you solved your problem ?
Which version of OF are you using, in the last one you should use constant/MFRProperties instead of system/fvOption to set the MRF.

Also I have run some computation on marine propeller, and I have a scaling on pressure (not only rho). Do you have such problem too ?

Regards,

rhu
