Dear all,

Eventually I would like to perform a wind turbine rotor simulation with OpenFOAM, but for now I'm trying out a simple wedge case to see how how the solver behaves. Please see th attached image of pointwise mesh with the boundaries.

Unfortunately even for this simple case, with the MRF zones deactivated OF4.1 blows up with the first iteration checkMesh seems OK, not sure where the problem is...

Could anyone please take a look at this case:

Kind regards,
Kishore

Managed to get it fixed there was something wrong with the pointwise export. All working fine now.
