Hi,

I am trying to run a simulation with "rhoPisoFoam + SLTS" formulation. i get following output:

1) What it rDeltaT in this output????

2) Also i am using ddtscheme as: SLTS phi rho 1
what does this verbatim means??? can anyone explain??

3) Why the solver does not solve rho equation?? Though rhoPisoFoam has rhoEqn.H file included in its code, it does not seem to actually solve the density equation. Why??

Thank you.

Please, stop asking the same question (point 3) in multiple threads. You simply invite member to avoid you posts in this way.

Best,

The solver is running for my case but the solution blows up every time with the same error.

i am using dt = 5e-7 and this is after about 18000 iterations. I was thinking it may be due to mesh (as i had some bad cells but i coarsen the mess to remove them) but for any refinement of mesh same error comes sooner or later.
I have no idea what is happening. The previous iterations of this error are like this:

Till the penultimate iteration everything seems fine, residual values going down an all.
Attaching my case setup here. Any suggestions???

[immortality]

did you find a useful answer or solve the problem yourself?

[mm.abdollahzadeh]

rDeltaT is simply the inverce of your deltaT. Im not sure that the rhopisoFoam itself has the the rDelatT calculation.

if your case is blowing ... reduce your time step , one guess Comax=0.2.
and check also your schemes for div and interpolation. for start u can use upwind.
also your boundary condition are important.

1) What it rDeltaT in this output????

2) Also i am using ddtscheme as: SLTS phi rho 1
what does this verbatim means??? can anyone explain??

3) Why the solver does not solve rho equation?? Though rhoPisoFoam has rhoEqn.H file included in its code, it does not seem to actually solve the density equation. Why??

Thank you.
