Hi FOAMers
I'm new in OpenFoam and trying to simulate flow over a cylinder that has a round solid surrounding around it.my solver is chtMultiRegionFoam & edit /tutorials/heatTransfer/multiRegionHeater. I get right answer of T,U,P. but the problem is when i want to apply force coefficient setting at the end of controlDict.I added below code at the end of controlDict but after running i found no postProcessing folder. functions { forceCoeffs1 { type forceCoeffs; functionObjectLibs ( "libforces.so" ); writeControl timeStep; writeInterval 100; log yes; patches ( wall ); pName p; UName U; log true; rho rhoInf; rhoInf 1; liftDir (0 1 0); dragDir (1 0 0); CofR (0 0 0); // Axle midpoint on ground pitchAxis (0 0 1); magUInf 1; lRef 6; // Wheelbase length Aref 6; // Estimated } } I checked log folder and found calculating without solving force coefficient, the only thing I found is( warning & error ) before starting iterations : --> FOAM Warning : From function bool Foam::functionObjectList::read() in file db/functionObjects/functionObjectList/functionObjectList.C at line 644 Caught FatalError --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: request for objectRegistry region0 from objectRegistry disk failed available objects of type objectRegistry are 2 ( solidzone fluidzone ) From function const Type& Foam:bjectRegistry::lookupObject(const Foam::word&) const [with Type = Foam:bjectRegistry] in file /home/sibco/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-4.0/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/objectRegistryTemplates.C at line 193. I wonder if anyone can explain me chtMultiRegionFoam solver can calculate force coefficient for fluid zone ? Thank you! |
