Hi there,I am new to OpenFoam and i am struggling to figure out why my residuals function isn't creating a residuals files in postProcessing. Any guidance on this matter will be appreciated. Below is a copy of the functions in my controlDict: Thank you in advance


libs ("libOpenFOAM.so" "libforces.so");

functions
{
forces
{
type forces;
libs ("libforces.so");
patches (cylinder);
p p;
U U;
rho rhoInf;
rhoInf 1.225;
pRef 0;
porosity no;
writeFields yes;
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;
log true;
CofR (0 0 0);
pitchAxis (0 1 0);
}
forceCoeffs
{
type forceCoeffs;
libs ("libforces.so");
patches (cylinder);
p p;
U U;
rho rhoInf;
rhoInf 1.225;
pRef 0;
porosity no;
writeFields yes;
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;
log true;
CofR (0 0 0);
liftDir (0 1 0);
dragDir (1 0 0);
pitchAxis (0 1 0);
magUInf 12.26925; // $../0/U!Uinlet;
lRef 0.16 ; // $../system/blockMeshDict!diameter
Aref 0.16; // $../system/blockMeshDict!projArea;
}
residuals
{
type residuals;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;
log true;
fields
(
p
U
k
epsilon
);
}
streamlinesLine
{
type streamlines;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
name streamlines;
start (-24 -24 0);
end (-24 24 0);
nPoints 100;
fields (U);
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;
}
}

Hi,

I think the type you would want is not residuals, but solverInfo
