(CFDEM Tutorial) Only error occurs on 'cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder'

Submitted by bc on Tue, 04/07/2015 - 06:38

Hi, I completed the installation of cfdem and tried to execute some tutorials. Then, I have two questions during the execution.

1. Most of examples (except the cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder case) can be executed successfully. However, when I implement the code using './Allrun.sh', the output was only "some graphs", not the vtk files (because I want to see the simulation using paraview). For example, in the cfdemSolverIB/twoSpheresGlowinskiMPI case, there is no dump(or vtk) files in ''DEM/post'' folder after the successful calculation. How can I visualize the cfdemSolverIB/twoSpheresGlowinskiMPI case using paraview?

2. In the cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder case, the unknown error occurs and the empty paraview is executed after the calculation. I don't know how can I fix it and the log files of liggghts and cfdem are listed below.

MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD
with errorcode 1.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.

Thank you for your advice and I make 'post' folder in DEM part. After the calculation, the DEM section works well, but the part of CFD still doesn't work at all (the same error before).

Then, I saw the 'log_run_ligghts_fillCylinder_DEM' first (just normal I think),

Hi all,

I have the same problems running case "tutorials/cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder". The first lines of the error message are:

FOAM aborting

For me it seems that the case was not properly adapted to OF-2.3.1 from an older version.

For all other tutorial cases I get errors like that:

[itcp-lx-access3:28575] [[INVALID],INVALID] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Not found in file runtime/orte_init.c at line 125
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or
environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure;
here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an
Open MPI developer):

orte_ess_base_select failed

Greetings matthi

bc | Wed, 05/13/2015 - 09:38

I think that we need to be a well-OpenFOAM user... The reason is the missing of the velocity(or pressure, Temperature,....) information in '0' folder.
Usually, the '0' folder has the information of initial condition (written in OpenFOAM manual).
Finally, the example case is not the perfect form (maybe the only 'dummy' file is located in '0' folder and you have to complete the information), so we have to start filling those things!.
Thank you for reading my reply.

matthi | Mon, 06/01/2015 - 14:50

Dear BC,

Thanks for your reply.

Error with: "tutorials/cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder"
You`re completely right. the problem is an OpenFOAM problem.

The second type of errors:

([itcp-lx-access3:28575] [[INVALID],INVALID] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Not found in file runtime/orte_init.c at line 125

was a problem concerning OpenMPI on our SUSE Linux V14 system. After spending a lot of time wizthout success installing the code on SUSE
we decided to shift to UBUNTU. Using this it was much easier to install the codes. Now the turorial cases run (except the case "tutorials/cfdemPostproc/fillCylinder").

Greetings Matthi

Hi,

sorry for the inconvenience. I think they weren't updated to be compatible to the last version, but should be soon.

Cheers
Josef

hi

josef, could you please take a look on fillcylinder example? I am working on particle packing project. I really need to fix issue on cfdempostproc solver. Thanks for your help

Is there already a solution to the problem?
What do I have to do to make the tutorial working?

Cheers,
Christian
