Hello all!

I am having a problem with my case, which has a interface done with the boundary condition cyclicACMI.

When it starts running, Courant number has a nan value and it crashes automatically, as it is shown below:

Courant Number mean: nan max: 2.732019717e-07
deltaT = 1.2e-10
Time = 1.2e-10

PIMPLE: iteration 1
smoothSolver: Solving for Ux, Initial residual = nan, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 1000
smoothSolver: Solving for Uy, Initial residual = nan, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 1000
GAMG: Solving for p, Initial residual = nan, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 50
GAMG: Solving for p, Initial residual = nan, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 50


--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
wrong token type - expected Scalar, found on line 0 the word 'nan'

file: /panfs/storage/s207619/try4_dynOF/system/data.solverPerformance.p at line 0.

From function operator>>(Istream&, Scalar&)
in file lnInclude/Scalar.C at line 93.

FOAM exiting

I can also send the case if anyone could think you might have a clue.

I have attached all the folder of the case, so if anyone can help me I would be really thankful.

Cheers

Hello,

Please check weights for cyclicAMI BC. If weight is very close to zero or zero for some faces it can lead to divergence.

Hello,

I have checked and it is not the case... Here I post the full message I receive:

Thanks!

Greetings to all!

@Drew1: If you haven't managed to fix this issue yet, please try upgrading to OpenFOAM 2.3.x, since a few bugs have already been solved regarding ACMI since 2.3.0 was released.

Best regards,
Bruno
