Hello everyone,
i got an error during solving due to uncovered Faces. Here is my log-file: .............. Reading field p Reading field U Reading/calculating face flux field phi Initializing the GGI interpolator between master/shadow patches: DT-TO-RU-SIDE-1/DT-TO-RU-SIDE-2 Initializing the GGI interpolator between master/shadow patches: RU-TO-SVWG-SIDE-1/RU-TO-SVWG-SIDE-2 Initializing the GGI interpolator between master/shadow patches: SVWG-TO-SC-SIDE-2/SVWG-TO-SC-SIDE-1 From function void GGIInterpolation<MasterPatch, SlavePatch>::rescaleWeightingFactors() const in file /home/lenama/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/GGIInterpolationWeights.C at line 535 Uncovered faces found. On master: 0 on slave: 56 --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Found uncovered faces for GGI interface SVWG-TO-SC-SIDE-2/SVWG-TO-SC-SIDE-1 while the bridgeOverlap option is not set in the boundary file. This is an unrecoverable error. Aborting. From function void ggiPolyPatch::calcPatchToPatch() const in file meshes/polyMesh/polyPatches/constraint/ggi/ggiPolyPatch.C at line 129.

End There should be no uncovered faces in my mesh - so why does OF cause this error? How can I show this "uncovered faces" in ParaView or inhibit this problem?The mesh also passed the checkMesh in ICEM! So does anyone have an idea or some experiences to resolve this error? Thanks in advance. Regards Markus |

Maybe try to do this in the constant/polyMesh/boundary file:
Code:
insideSlider { type ggi; nFaces 216; startFace 95925; shadowPatch outsideSlider; zone insideZone; bridgeOverlap true; } outsideSlider { type ggi; nFaces 240; startFace 96141; shadowPatch insideSlider; zone outsideZone; bridgeOverlap true; } |
