Negative temperature/internal energy in modified rhoCentralFoam
 
Hello everyone,

I am modifying the rhoCentralFoam by adding additional terms in mass, momentum and energy balance equation, ( Type 1 model of the following paper: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/1...528/ab4b86/pdf )

The solver crashes with a sigFpe error. I have tried debugging the solver and with my limited understanding I can pinpoint the error to a negative temperature at a cellpoint.

The test case being solved is a 2D lid-driven cavity problem, with dimensions 10^-7 x 10^-7 x 10^-8 .
Top lid moves at 100m/s (BC fixedValue) and other 3 walls have zerogradient BC for p & T and noSlip for U. since its 2D front and back faces of the cuboid are given empty BC.

While debugging with gdb I see that in line 309 of the solver,
Quote:

308 e = rhoE/rho - 0.5*magSqr(U);
309 e.correctBoundaryConditions();
310 thermo.correct();
the e.correctBoundaryConditions() function returns a negative value at e[39801], which pops up as error in thermo.correct()
Quote:

(gdb) display *&e[39801]
2: *&e[39801] = 113562.53726693301
(gdb) n
309 e.correctBoundaryConditions();
2: *&e[39801] = -99394.616383268934
I was wondering if someone could suggest any ways to check my implementaion, especially since its my first time modifying a solver. Let me know if additional files are required to check.
I have doubts on my implementation of energy equation too,

Modified energy equation:

// --- Solve energy
surfaceScalarField sigmaDotU

"sigmaDotU",

fvc::interpolate(muEff)*mesh.magSf()*fvc::snGrad(U )
+ fvc::dotInterpolate(mesh.Sf(), -tau_v2) //tauMCS
)
& (a_pos*U_pos + a_neg*U_neg)
);
// Below -> N1, N2, N3, N4, N5 and N6 based on RNS paper energy equation : Appendix

volVectorField N3("N3",-0.5*magSqr(fvc::grad(rho))*((fvc::grad(lnr))/rho)) ;
volScalarField N41("N41",fvc::div(rho*(U*U) + rho*I/psi - tau_RNS )&fvc::grad(lnr));

);
volScalarField N6

-0.5*magSqr(fvc::grad(rho))*((fvc::laplacian(rho))/rho)/rho

solve
(
fvm::ddt(rhoE)

+ fvc::div(Km*tau_v & fvc::grad(lnr))
);

e = rhoE/rho - 0.5*magSqr(U);
e.correctBoundaryConditions();
thermo.correct();
rhoE.boundaryFieldRef() ==
rho.boundaryField()*
(
e.boundaryField() + 0.5*magSqr(U.boundaryField())

);

if (!inviscid)
{

rhoE = rho*(e + 0.5*magSqr(U));
}
