Dear Neks, 

 

Sorry for my previous mail.

I hope that the layout will be good now.

_________________________________________________________________

Dear users and developers,

 

I'm simulating a 3D conjugate heat transfer case, considering
temperature as a passive scalar.

When I simulate only one temperature field everything is ok.

If I add more passive scalar fields (each one identical to the first
one), after the subroutine prepost.f/outfld is called, then some of
these fields are not good.

I ran up to 8 additional fields, and results are the followings ("--"
means that the field is not good):

 

    ldimt   T     PS1   PS2   PS3   PS4   PS5   PS6   PS7   PS8

    1       ok

    2       ok    --

    3       ok    --    ok

    4       ok    --    ok    ok

    5       ok    --    --    --    ok

    6       ok    --    --    --    ok    ok

    7       ok    --    --    --    ok    ok    ok

    8       ok    --    --    --    ok    ok    ok    ok

    9       ok    --    --    --    ok    ok    ok    ok    ok

 

I'm using PN-PN.

Nothing changes with the number of mesh points or the number of steps or
the spatial polynomial order.

 

I saw differences with Visit, with mean temperature profiles, and with
average temperature in fluid and solid domain.

Differences are noticeable also in logfile. Consider the following
example, in which the first field file is dumped at step 250; at step
251 the changes are noticeable in the number of iterations per field
only for PS1, PS2 and PS3.

Looking to the outfld subroutine I wasn't able to figure out the reason
for that.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

 

Thanks in advance.
