Dear all,

I am using the bubbleInterTrackFoam solver of OpenFOAM-1.5-dev, built by Dr. Zeljko Tukovic. On my laptop it happily runs, but not on my desktop. Yesterday I installed OpenFOAM-1.5-dev via svn. When I run a case that works on my laptop the following error shows up:

[gijsbert@mintek bubble2D-r0.75mm_20r_OF_1.5-dev]$ newBubbleInterTrackFoam

Selecting motion solver: laplaceCellDecomposition

Somehow it doesn't want to use laplaceCellDecomposition as a solver type. The output of egrep -r "laplaceCellDecomposition" . in OpenFOAM-1.5.dev gives

Binary file ./lib/linux64GccDPOpt/libcellDecompositionMotionSolver.so matches
./src/tetDecompositionMotionSolver/lnInclude/laplaceTetDecompositionMotionSolver.H:    TypeName("laplaceCellDecomposition");
Binary file ./src/tetDecompositionMotionSolver/Make.cellDecomp/linux64GccDPOpt/laplaceTetDecompositionMotionSolver.o matches

./src/tetDecompositionMotionSolver/tetDecompositionMotionSolver/laplace/laplaceTetDecompositionMotionSolver.H:    TypeName("laplaceCellDecomposition");

I changed the solver in constant/dynamicMeshDict to laplaceFaceDecomposition and now it runs. Does anyone have an idea what the problem is here and how much it actually matters whether I use face or cell decomposition in this case?

Thanks in advance!

Gijs

Well, that got solved. I digged a bit deeper and found a post related to it here. As mentioned in that post I added -lcellDecompositionMotionSolver to Make/options and recompiled the solver. Now it runs .

Cheers, Gijs
