Hi,
I've been trying to simulate the phase change process of water to ice conversion using OpenFOAM+ v1906.
I'm using buoyantBoussinesqPimpleFoam solver. its showing the following error.

Thanks in advance

I got it solved, i was using buoyantBoussinesqPimpleFoam along with solidificationMeltingSource, i re-did the case using buoyantPimpleFoam and it ran well.

Hi, can you send your case setup file once. I'm also getting the error, but didn't solved.


Thanks in advance.
