Dear FOAMers,

I have encountered a problem while running a case on cluster and got the error(part of it):

And I have run the identical case on the clusters of another institution, as well as on my local machine, it worked well.

It is LES case, cell number 3.75 million. subdomain: simple, (12,4,1). The OpenFOAM versions on the two clusters and my workstation are all 2.3.0. Does any one have any idea about the problem?

Hi,

You problem is divergence

Code:
Time = 20.56

Courant Number mean: 0.0282469 max: 0.118619
...
GAMG: Solving for p, Initial residual = 1, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 1000
GAMG: Solving for p, Initial residual = nan, Final residual = nan, No Iterations 1000
Why GAMG is diverging? It depends on GAMG settings (and maybe IC/BC). Could you reproduce the error with PCG?

Hi Alexey,
Thank you very much for you reply. I have run the identical case elsewhere( my workstation, and cluster of another institution) and it worked well, no divergence. And that is why I'm confused and don't know what is the problem.
I'll try PCG and will post the result here.

Thank you again!
