Hi,

I am trying to simulate a time accurate flow solution of an axial compressor in v7.2.0. I am using a full-annulus model.

I have to restart the unsteady case with a steady state solution of the same model. I am just renaming the steady state solution restat_flow.dat to restat_flow_00000.dat, restat_flow_00001.dat, restat_flow_00002.dat, and trying to run the unsteady cases.

With both DUAL_TIME_STEPPING-2ND_ORDER and DUAL_TIME_STEPPING-1ST_ORDER options , I get the following error, which looks a bit strange to me.
Code:
Error in "void CSolver::Restart_OldGeometry(CGeometry *, CConfig *)": 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is no flow restart file restart_flow_00002.csv
------------------------------ Error Exit -------------------------------
I observed that, switching off GRID_MOVEMENT which needs to be set as ROTATING_FRAME for my case, gets the case running.
So, does the restart option (for dual time stepping) not work with ROTATING_FRAME? If so, is there any other way to get a time-accurate solution for this kind of a problem?

I am pasting my .cfg here
Code:

well, are you maybe mixing up binary .dat and ascii .csv files? ... But I am not sure if anything weird is happening. We have the option READ_BINARY_RESTART= YES/NO where the default is YES. And I guess you always write binary .dat files via OUTPUT_FILES= RESTART


Maybe you could try switching to ASCII files by OUTPUT_FILES= RESTART_ASCII and then try to restart with READ_BINARY_RESTART= NO



maybe that helps already

Hello Tobi,

I was using .dat only.

I tried switching to ASCII files - that does not work either. It says the solution file mesh is different even though I am using the same mesh.
Code:
Error in "void CSolver::Read_SU2_Restart_ASCII(CGeometry *, const CConfig *, std::__cxx11::string)":
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The solution file does not match the mesh, currently only binary files can be interpolated.
------------------------------ Error Exit -------------------------------

Thank you,
Jyoti

Hi,
Can you try your initial method (binary restart) but in addition create the ascii outputs.
So, in your steady-state use OUTPUT_FILES= RESTART_ASCII, RESTART, ... like TKatt suggested, but do not use READ_BINARY_RESTART= NO.

Also, to my shame I have not done many turbomachinery simulations in SU2, but if you are doing full-annulus unsteady, shouldn't you be using a RIGID_MOTION instead of a rotating frame?
i.e. the entire mesh is moved every time step.
I guess the two modelling options are equivalent if you only have one stage.

Yes, I have tried this in the process of trying out combinations of binary, ascii, etc. and the case was running at least. I was waiting to see if it is converging (still in progress). Thanks.

Not sure. Usually a moving reference frame is much more efficient computationally. And, RIGID_MOTION may not work IMO as one surface (shroud) has to be stationary; I will see, at some time, if it works.
