Hi everyone

I am simulating the water flow in a pipe with channelFoam. I could start the computations but it stopped after a few hours and I got this error:

Can anyone help me with that?

[nimasam]

it seems its related your schemes in fvScheme,
put your fvScheme here. may some one can help you

[libra]

For my case fvScheme is as follows:

div((nuEff*dev(grad(U).T()))) Gauss linear;
}

}

}

snGradSchemes

// ************************************************** *********************** //

However it seems that there is something wrong with "courant number". During the computations it gets bigger and bigger and finally the computation stops.

[nimasam]

i dont know where the problem is but could you change limited linear schemes into upwind schemes! and report the result?

[libra]

Thanks nimasam
Problem solved. There was sth wrong with the offset value. I needed to define it in the opposite direction.
