Hello,

I am new to the OpenFOAM, and currently, I am performing a battery thermal analysis using the chtMultiRegionFoam. However, I am getting an error on the first iteration and not sure how to deal with that.

Could anyone able to help me here?

Here is the error I am getting with the OpenFOAM-2012.

I tried to change the boundary conditions but still I am getting the same error.

If anyone can provide a help to solve it then it will much appreciated.

Thank You!!

Hello

How about commenting out the following in your system/controlDict functions?

functions
{
//#includeFunc residuals_fluid;
//#includeFunc residuals_solid;

....
}


In OpenFOAM-v2012, the functionObject "residuals" has been changed to "silverInfo".
