Dears.

I'm running this simple problem in openfoam, with a no solution founded.

The problem is the flow of water around a cylinder, I've decided to do it in 2d, because the next simulation will be the flow around a sphere in which I will have to find drag and lift coefficients but in 3D. The inlet velocity is 0.1 m/s, and the pressure is 0.

The error is:
#0 Foam::error:rintStack(Foam::Ostream&) in "/opt/openfoam230/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libOpenFOAM.so"
#1 Foam::sigFpe::sigHandler(int) in "/opt/openfoam230/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libOpenFOAM.so"

I have already change the inlet and outlet types of BC, but the problem still going. I did the mesh in gmsh, and exported with no problem to openFoam. I put here the all information. I really appreciate your time, and the way in which you can help me.

The files are here:

Again I really appreciate your time. I'm using OF 2.3 and postprocessing in paraView.

Thanks.

Hi,

well... icoFoam is applicable only for non-turbulent cases. While in your case Re = 0.1*D/1e-6. Visually I can estimate diameter of the cylinder as 0.25 of channel width, so it's 2800*0.25 = 700. So final Re = 7e6, it's rather high and solver diverges.

Hi Alexey.

Well I did the change and I'm using simpleFoam to solve the case, but I have another problem again.

And I don't get any solution at all. I've changed the epsilon values as some people indicates in the forum and its didn't work.

The problem is a flow around a cylinder...its seems easy to perform!

I really appreciate that somebody can help me!

Thanks alexey and all who support me.
