Hi, I have a question:
I wanna calculate the movement of a 3d rigid body due to the pressure and shear forces of the flow with Fluent. The problem is a 3d flow in a tube with a rigid body that is free to move inside that tube (I've added an image below).
I wrote this UDF (It's my first UDF!!!! :-S ):

DEFINE_SDOF_PROPERTIES(six_degs_of_frdom1, prop, dt, time, dtime)
{
Thread *t;
face_t f;
real NV_VEC(A);
real force0, force1, force2;

t = DT_THREAD(dt);
force0 = 0.0;
force1 = 0.0;
force2 = 0.0;

begin_f_loop(f,t)
{
F_AREA(A,f,t);
force0 += F_P(f,t) * A[0] + F_STORAGE_R_N3V(f,t,SV_WALL_SHEAR)[0];
force1 += F_P(f,t) * A[1] + F_STORAGE_R_N3V(f,t,SV_WALL_SHEAR)[1];
force2 += F_P(f,t) * A[2] + F_STORAGE_R_N3V(f,t,SV_WALL_SHEAR)[2];
}
end_f_loop(f,t)

prop[SDOF_MASS] = 50;
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_X] = force0; /* external force */
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_Y] = force1; /* external force */
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_Z] = force2; /* external force */


but Fluent stamp an error :

Error:
FLUENT received fatal signal (ACCESS_VIOLATION)
1. Note exact events leading to error.
2. Save case/data under new name.
3. Exit program and restart to continue.
4. Report error to your distributor.
Error Object: #f

Can somebody help me??!?!?!??!?!
Thanks!

Hi,
I've added this header:
storage.h
and the "ACCESS_VIOLATION" problem was solved!! (many thanks to Amir for that!).
But there is now a new problem...

the 3d object doesn't move at all...

does anyone have any idea what might be wrong?
Thanks!

Hi assac
im using 6dof for calculate force and moving body
my udf is:

#include "udf.h"

DEFINE_SDOF_PROPERTIES(stage, prop, dt, time, dtime)
{
Thread *t;
face_t f;
real NV_VEC(A);
real force0, force1, force2;

t = DT_THREAD(dt);
force0 = 0.0;
force1 = 0.0;
force2 = 0.0;

begin_f_loop(f,t)
{
F_AREA(A,f,t);
force0 += F_P(f,t) * A[0];
force1 += F_P(f,t) * A[1];
force2 += F_P(f,t) * A[2];
}
end_f_loop(f,t)

prop[SDOF_MASS] = 50;
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_X] = force0;
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_Y] = force1;
prop[SDOF_LOAD_F_Z] = force2;
printf ("\nstage: updated 6DOF properties");
}
but it doesnt work and fluent messege is:
FLUENT received fatal signal (ACCESS_VIOLATION)
1. Note exact events leading to error.
2. Save case/data under new name.
3. Exit program and restart to continue.
4. Report error to your distributor.
Error Object: ()

please help me.
