+--------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Checking for Isolated Fluid Regions | +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ 3 isolated fluid regions were found in domain Default Domain If the isolated regions do not have the pressure level set either by the boundary conditions or using a reference pressure equation, you may encounter severe robustness problems. This situation may have arisen because a domain interface was not properly defined during problem setup. Please carefully check the setup. The solver will stop now and write a results file. The isolated regions can be visualised in CFX Post by making plots of the variable "Isolated Volumes". If you are sure that the pressure level is set in each isolated fluid region then you can force the solver to turn off this check by setting the expert parameter "check isolated regions = f". what are the possibilities of this error |

The implications are exactly what it says - you may have convergence difficulties. But this situation is common in things like heat exchanger models and often the simulation runs OK desipte the warning. So it is just a notice to the user to be aware of the issue.

But the solver does not starts to solve after this error...It exits with error code 1

Sorry, yes, it is an error which stops the solver.
Your choices are: Fix the problem and connect the isolated volumes or Use the work-around expert parameter - and make sure you know the implications of this. |
