Possible Bug in pimpleFoam (or createPatch) (or fluent3DMeshToFoam)

cfdonline2mohsen · October 21, 2013, 10:21

Hello to all Foamers

I'm struggling with a problem for about 2 weeks.
I want to simulate a channel flow. I created my mesh in GAMBIT then imported it to OpenFOAM and ran it successfully by using pimpleFoam. after a while, I created the same geometry in GAMBIT and again imported it to OpenFOAM but I couldn't run it this time by pimpleFoam??

I explain my problem in details.
I created two channel geometries with the same geometry and mesh in GAMBIT (TwinLundWithCyclic1.msh and TwinLundTwin.msh)and then import them to OpenFOAM:

As you can see both geometries are the same (except for the name of the patches inteface0 & black1 that were misspelled and I changed them manually in polyMesh/boundary to interface0 & back1).

Then I did checkMesh for both meshes:

As you see there are a little differences between the 2 Meshes That I highlighted them in red for interface1,interface0,back1,plate0,top1 patches and also for Boundary openness. I searched the whole Forums and I found that this e-17 or e-16 are the numerical way of saying 0. e.g. see #2.

My 1st suspicion is using e-17 or e-16 by OpenFOAM instead of 0
Then I used createPatch for creating 2 cyclic patches inside my domain:

3rd Step: createPatch for My 1st Case (TwinLundWithCyclic2):

Code:

 End

As you can see createPatch are the same for both meshes.
It seems that createPatch is not a suspect.

Then I replaced my old polyMesh with this new polyMesh that is created in 1.5e-05 and changed the names of the new cyclic patches interface0New & interface1New to interface0&interface1. the I changed the type of the inlet patch to mappedPatch.

As you can see there are a little differences between the 2 Meshes for these this e-17 or e-16 values for interface1,interface0,back1,plate0,top1 patches just like the 2nd step and also for Boundary openness but with different values with respect to the 2nd step.
Also,a new difference has emerged in this step: Coupled point location match.

  Floating point exception

And it gave Floating point exception Error!!!

The 0, system and constant(except polyMesh) folders are the same for both cases. and the geometries are the same for both cases except little differences in checkMesh (using e-17 or e-16 by OpenFOAM instead of 0).
My 1st case runs just fine and my 2nd case gives Floating point exception error!!

I've also uploaded both cases:

You can do all the above steps yourself to see that I'm right!
It drove me crazy!
Some body please tell me what's the reason???
