Hi everybody,

I am trying to calculate the appropiate number of cells in a blockMeshDict using the #calc operation.

Basically what I am doing is this:

x1		1.7;
y1		2.1; 
x2		2.1;
y2		2.05;
x3		2.5;
y3		2.3;

nBlock1XCells	20;
nBlock1YCells	#calc "std::ceil((y1 - y2) * 20)";

Unfortunatly this fails with the error message:

/home/fiedler/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-v1712/platforms/linux64/gcc-6.3.0/include/c++/6.3.0/limits:1601:7: internal compiler error: Illegal instruction

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,

I have the same error, but the problem is slightly more general. For me the error comes from using #calc in the first place. Even simple multiplications result in the same error

You need to use your variables properly. The rules of OpenFOAM's macro expansion apply.

NZ4  #calc "std::ceil( ($Z4 - $Z3) / $dz )";

FYI// The new #eval expression replacing #calc is pretty powerful and much more faster than #calc //FYI
