Hi Foamers,
I am a new users to OpenFOAM, and using OpenFOAM 1.6.
I try to do some modification to LRR model.
The l.h.s of the original equation of R is as follows:

fvm::ddt(R_)
+ fvm::div(phi_, R_)
- fvm::Sp(fvc::div(phi_), R_)
//- fvm::laplacian(Cs*(k_/epsilon_)*R_, R_)
- fvm::laplacian(DREff(), R_)
+ fvm::Sp(Clrr1_*epsilon_/k_, R_)

The modified l.h.s is as follows:

fvm::ddt(R_)
+ fvm::div(phi_, R_)
- fvm::Sp(fvc::div(phi_), R_)
- fvm::laplacian(Cs*(k_/epsilon_)*R_, R_)
// - fvm::laplacian(DREff(), R_)
+ fvm::Sp(Clrr1_*epsilon_/k_, R_)

Only the laplacian term is modified.

When running pisoFoam after compilation, I receive the error message.

Segmentation fault

Does anyone know why I get this error message?
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you.

Hello,

I am facing exactly the same problem as you, were you able to fix it?


Cheers,

@Thierry

I had some similar problems a little while back. The code that was provided was

- fvm::laplacian(Cs*(k_/epsilon_)*R_, R_)

Since the implicit laplacian is being used, I believe the first argument in the fvm::laplacian needs to be explicit and cannot contain the R_ term (the variable that is being solved for implicitly). One would need to provide an explicit quantity as a first argument in the implicit laplacian so that the PDE will remain linear and can be solved with a linear system solver. Hope this helps a tiny bit.

edit: I didn't see how old that thread was...so i directed it at Thierry after the fact

Dear Chegdan,

Thanks for your answer.
I see your point, I will try to investigate more in which way to set down the equation in order that it works.

Cheers,

Thierry

I don't think it's an an implicit/explit issue. The first term in the laplacian function is automatically assumed explicit, I think. The problem is that OF 2.0 and previous don't have fvm::laplacian(tensor,tensor) functionality implemented. This has been fixed in the 2.0.x git repository, and presumably also in 2.1. I am running the same changes you describe to the LRR (and LaunderGibsonRSTM) in an up-to-date OF without problems. I don't yet have a handle on whether the accuracy of the modelling is improved by said changes.
