Multizone simulation doesn't output history.csv file

Orangade · November 22, 2022, 07:38

Hello everyone, I am trying to run a multizone simulation with SU2 v7.2.1 with 2 zones which differ in their rigid motion properties.
I have the following variables in the main configuration file:
TABULAR_FORMAT= CSV
CONV_FILENAME= history
HISTORY_OUTPUT= (ITER,...)
HISTORY_WRT_FREQ_INNNER= 1

I read in the "History and Solution Output" in the Users Guide that if I run a multizone problem, a file "history_multizone.dat" should be created in addition to the history files of each zone. However, we have no history file at all.

Thank you!

Writing a history file seems to work for me (sample size of N=1), but in your case I think the history filename will be "history.csv". So the best thing is:
1. upgrade to the latest version of SU2

2. try the multizone testcases in the TestCases folder and verify that they work correctly for you.

3. copy the correct settings to your own configuration
4. if it is still not working for your own testcase, please provide a minimal testcase to reproduce the issue.
