[Carlo_P]

Hey Guys,
I'm trying to perform and analys with CHTMultyRegionFoam.


A liquid is inside a mold and the mold is heater by some resistance.


I tried to set up, I run it, but some errors appers.


I attach the folder. Can you take a look and give me some suggestions?
I think that the problem is linked to some BL


Thanks a lot,
Carlo
