FAQ
ParticipantThe case contains a mass flow inlet. It was attempted to initialize the flow field with values computed from the mass-flow inlet. Upon initializing, a fatal error (seg. violation) is generated in serial. In parallel, MPI process is terminated. This case and procedure worked in Fluent6.0. Fluent6.1.18 has a defect where attempting to compute-defaults from a mass-flow-inlet to initialize the flow field results in a Floating Point error if no current flow data is present. The workaround is to initialize with the default values, compute-defaults from the mass-flow-inlet, and then reinitialize the flow field. This can be done through the GUI, but if you are using a journal file, the following can be used: ;;Fluent6.1.18 has a defect where attempting to compute-defaults ;;from a mass-flow-inlet to initialize the flow field, results in ;;a Floating Point error if no current flow data is present. ;;The workaround is to initialize with the default values, ;;compute-defaults from the mass-flow-inlet, and then reinitialize ;;the flow field.
