hopperemptyind example

Submitted by techblast333 on Sat, 10/22/2011 - 12:12

hello all,
i tried to run hopperemptying example of cfdem but it stooped with an error:

anoop@ubuntu:~/OpenFOAM/anoop-2.0.x/run/cfdemSolverPiso_shared/HopperEmptying/DEM$ liggghts < in.liggghts_init
LIGGGHTS 1.4.5 based on lammps-10Mar10
Created orthogonal box = (0 -0.006 -0.08) to (0.3 0 0.5)
ERROR: Bad grid of processors

what does it mean??
i changed processors to * * * but error is still same.
thanks for any further reply.

Hi,
appearently the case seems to be set up for parallel computation (i.e. processors (x y z) in the in.liggghts_init script), but you started liggghts in serial mode. use
mpirun -np ??? liggghts < in.liggghts
where ??? is the number of processors you chose to use.
In case you want to run the case serially, just remove the processors-line from the input-script.
Cheers,
Alice

>>i changed processors to * * *
also, processors * * * is not available in LIGGGHTS yet. _please_, dont mix up LAMMPS and LIGGGHTS commands/syntax!
