I am exploring OpenFOAM for turbomachinery simulations. Whenever I try to resume simulation from its previous state, I observed that time step continuity diverges. How to resolve it?
Hi. Just to help you, which OpenFOAM solver are you using? Are you using parallelization? Which Linux versión?
hi
before start run, you must decrease time step, when courant number be less than one, you change the time step and continue.
Yes, but it depends on the solver.
Hi Alejandro,
I am using SimpleFoam with MRF settings. And time step is pretty low as well.
Remove the last time step that had written, then continue
