Hello all,

I went from 2.3.x to 5.x and have to say it is much better. In chtMultiRegionFoam everything is more stable.

Two points that are open after case conversation:

1. How to get output of function-objects into the log. In 2.3.x I had "log yes;" as an option in the configuration file but this does not seem to work anymore.

2. Are nonOrthogonalCorrectors still supported by chtMultiRegionFoam? I have the parameters set to 3 for my solids (makes them converge faster), but the solver only does one iteration?

Hi,

1. https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...nctionObject.H. "log yes;" should still do the trick. Maybe you add to to wrong dictionary.

2. https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...MPLEControls.H. nNonOrthogonalCorrectors setting is still there.

Partially solved. I have a functionObject transfered from 2.3 that is working ("fieldMinMax"-type).
I am struggling with my "flowPatchRate"-types. These are no longer available and I switched to a surfaceFieldValue operation "sum". So this is now a "packed" functionObject and I don't have too much experience with that. It is basically working but "log" does not seem to work.

Working now. I copied a fvSolution file from the snappyHeater-tutorial.

To make things easier, could you post your functionObject configuration dictionary? Header comment in $FOAM_SRC/functionObjects/field/fieldValues/surfaceFieldValue/surfaceFieldValue.H contains example of configuration for calculating mass flux across a patch. There it is "log true;", yet it is the same as "log yes;".

Also solved, thanks. Looking into the header file helped me to figure out what parameters are required.

One more question: Is there a easy way to make a function object write out every time-step without explicitly needing to specify them?

Unfortunately I was not able to grasp meaning of the last question. I could try to guess, but think it would be easier for everybody if you reformulate the question.
