Errors encountered Running CFDBeginner at DesignSafe
« on: August 04, 2020, 04:13:16 PM »
Hi all,

I tried to run CFDBeginner.json from the workshop, the job started at DesignSafe with no problem.
But when I retrieve the results,  all the outputs are giving nan values for the mean.

I checked the simulation directory and it looks like the CFD simulation didn't run (I can see only step 0 directory). I have attached the log files in this thread.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks.

Jack

can you save the input setup using the file save option and attach it.

thanks. i ran it and replicated the error. the OpenFOAM simulation was failing to run with 1 processor. I have updated the num processors (for OpenFOAM that info is specified in the Simulation Control tab of the Event widget) and I ran the openfoam for a single time step, which worked. I am now running for a 12 sec (not your 120sec) duration to see if that works and I get the building to deform.
