max_ is on a distinguished road
Hello,

I'm working on a single nozzle case. After I converged in direct 2nd order, I tried to launch the adjoint, but I have an error message that can be seen here.

Code:
CSysSolve::FGMRES(): system solved by initial guess.


I tried to do adjoint with the testcases from SU2 and it worked, so I don't understand where my problem is...
I put my cfg file here-under, if someone could help me it would be great!!
Thanks a lot

Max

Hi,

It is possible that the simulation is simply going unstable immediately upon launch. Have you tried turning off multigrid, lowering the CFL, switching to 1st order, etc., just to see if you are able to get it running first? If you can get it working under these scenarios, then try ramping the convergence acceleration back up.

Hope this helps,
Tom

Any luck finding a solution to this?

I'm running into the same problem for a hypersonic inlet case and have tried reducing the CFL number to very low numbers (0.001) and running the adjoint first order but it still diverges after the first iteration. I can't work out why its happening as the direct solution has converged fine.

I assume I'm running it right... parallel_computation script with MATH_PROBLEM= CONTINUOUS_ADJOINT in the config file and the direct simulation restart file as the input.
