Archoncomando is on a distinguished road
So after a lot of work trying to get to know this program i managed to get the LTSInterFoam solver to run.



However i'm experiencing a few issues. During the first time step OpenFOAM tells me it can't find part1 and part2. Which confuses me since my mesh only has one part actually titled part1. None named part2.



Also the second timestep gives me results for part 1 and 2 but they all stay at 0.



Anyone got an idea where i might have gone wrong? Is my mesh broken? CheckMesh seemed to recognize all the boundaries i set up like inlet outlet and part1 just fine. Or did i use a wrong setting in some file that controls how the simulation runs?



I'm using Ansys Workbench for create the meshes, convert them using fluent3DMeshToFoam, use the setFields function with OpenFOAM v1812 and run the simulation with OpenFOAM-2.3.1.



Any input and idea would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
