Freeing Host Domain

Error: chip-exec: function "wall_flux" not found.

Error: chip-exec: function "wall_flux" not found.

 

[Rob]

The model is expecting a UDF to define the wall_flux but it's not available. When you interpret the UDF has it definitely worked?

[pawar002]

actually while i am interpreting it in my computer it works well, but when i am trying to submit the job on (OS: Linux based) HPC i am getting above error ("Error: chip-exec: function "wall_flux" not found."). 

[Rob]

Are you setting up on Windows and then transferring files to LINUX?  If so you need to run this command on the LINUX side:

dos2unix  something.c    

Windows adds a load of whitespace characters that cause problems on LINUX. 

[pawar002]

yes, I am following below mentioned steps while submitting the job,

dos2unix abc.jou

dos2unix udf.c

dos2unix pbs_submit.dat

 

but still, I am getting an error.

[Rob]

In which case can you also check the udf is being loaded on read in. It's possible it's trying to read from the original path.

}

end_f_loop(f,th);

}

 

 

[Rob]

Can you open the file on LINUX and check if there are any white space characters. The code ought to work, but obviously isn't. 

[pawar002]

No There isn't any white space characters in my code. please see above image.

cpp: /home/vrp1/Fluent/ETC_RV/UDF.c: Value too large for defined data type (What does it mean i am using ANSYS 19.0, OS:Linux)

Error: "/home/vrp1/Fluent/ETC_RV/UDF.c": line 1: syntax error.  ( i have also tried dos2unix UDF.c)

 

(everything is working perfectly on windows getting issue while submitting it to the HPC)

Please help me to solve this issue.

 

Thanks

Try compiling on Linux.

[pawar002]

Hi Abenhadj,

 

Could you please guide me how to compile UDF on Linux using Journal file?

 

Thank you

[Rob]

Look in the TUI and you'll find the commands under

/define/user-defined  

Then follow the commands. Use q to come back up a level in the TUI and to display the list of available commands. 

 

[pawar002]

Hi rwoolhou,

 

Thank you so much for your guidance.

I have compiled the UDF on HPC successfully. But interpreting UDF in FLUENT is much easier. could you please explain to me why it was showing syntax error while I interpreted it. But without any modification, it worked perfectly while I am compiling it.

 

Thank you. 

[Rob]

Not sure. I always add the headers in quote marks, eg

#include "udf.h"

Which you put in the original post, but then you omitted them in the screen grab of the editor. That could make a difference, and it was line 1 that gave the error. 

 

In general it's better to compile for compute efficiency and because not all macros & utilities are available in interpreted UDFs. 

 

[pawar002]

Thank you Rwoolhou for your help.
