im trying to get paralel run to work,

i observe the file restart_flow.dat gets filled with data to 735841 bytes and then it resets to 231 bytes multiple times during the run.

is this expected behavour?

any insight or tips would be apreciated.

Hi Merijn,

Thanks for reaching out and using SU2! This does seems to be a strange issue. Were your results correct? Or were they depreciated?

If you send me your config file, I can take a look. My guess is something with your local machine and parallel is a bit wonky. However, if your solution is correct, my guess is the code is working properly.

Let me know if you continue to have problems.
