Trouble adding temperature equations to icoFoam

alpha_13 · April 21, 2024, 00:46

Hi ,
I was trying to make a new solver "icoTempFoam" by adding three dimensional heat conduction equation (Fourier-biot equation) to icoFoam and the temperature field by using this openFoamwiki page :
https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/H...ure_to_icoFoam

I am using openFoamv9 , because i had trouble doing the same on openFoamv11 and one of my friends got it right and he was using openFoamv9 , so i switched to it but now in openFoamv9 i'm getting new errors when i run the 'wmake ' command:

make: *** No rule to make target 'Make/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/icoTempFoam.C.dep', needed by 'Make/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/icoTempFoam.o'. Stop.

Thanks a lot for your replies 😊

Hi Srikanth,

I guess that the main file (the only file .C inside the solver folder) is not named correctly, it should be icoTempFoam.C, please check it.

If it is called like that, then I would check the document "files" inside Make folder.

Here, it should be written:

icoTempFoam.C

EXE = $(FOAM_USER_APPBIN)/icoTempFoam

Best regards,
Lorenzo

Thank you so much it worked !

renaming the file name to icoTempFoam.C fixed the issue
