The problem I experienced is basically related to the compressible nature of my simulation and it seems that the R-utility is written exclusively for

I am facing a problem of mapFields taking too long to map fields from a fine mesh to a coarser mesh. I am running simulation using sprayFoam, and want to coarse the mesh to achieve faster solution. So I executed:

in the aacheBomb-coarse directory and it is running without errors. However, it gets

As this may also be interesting to other people and I would be interested in feedback, please find the summary below:

Basics:
If the grid near the wall is fine enough (~y+<1 everywhere and at least 4-5 nodes

To turn off the stabilising technique used in the solver go to the main file of the viscoelastc model you want and do the etaPEff = 0 in the divTau() funtion or take out the
