Hi to everyone,

I am trying to simulate a spouted bed (CFD) using pisoFoam. I am using kepslion turbulence model. When i run the case it is always giving following floating point error:

My initial condition for k and epsilon are as follows:

-> k:
dimensions [0 2 -2 0 0 0 0];

internalField uniform 0.00325;

boundaryField
{
casing
{
type kqRWallFunction;
value $internalField;
}
steg
{
type kqRWallFunction;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_3
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_1
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_2
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_4
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_5
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_6
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_7
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_8
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
outlet
{
type inletOutlet;
inletValue uniform 0;
value $internalField;
}
}

-> epsilon:

dimensions [0 2 -3 0 0 0 0];

internalField uniform 0.000765;

boundaryField
{
casing
{
type epsilonWallFunction;
value $internalField ;
}

steg
{
type epsilonWallFunction;
value $internalField ;
}
outlet
{
type inletOutlet;
inletValue uniform 0;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_1
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_2
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_3
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_4
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_5
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_6
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_7
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}
inlet_8
{
type fixedValue;
value $internalField;
}

}

Any comment and help will be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
