I'm trying to run a non-combustion IC Engine simulation in Ansys Forte. The simulation runs perfectly with experimental settings (temp, pressure, velocity etc.) but the results vary a little.

As I try to tweak a little with the crevice model factors the simulation starts crashing giving the following errors::

Temperature overflow during fluxing.
Try reducing the convection time step control tolerance and restarting.

Error: Run aborting because the timestep is being driven too small.
The cause of this is: "Halved (recycling)"
    dt = 7.11500E-13 [s]
     t = 1.69980E-02 [s]
   cycle =    537
   crank =   76.49 [deg]
Error: Consider adjusting the timestep control tolerances according to the cause of the timestep being too small.

To resolve this I decided to alter convection factor in time step settings, but again the 'timestep being driven too small error came'. To this I decreased the starin rate but then it got crashed with this error::

Error: Temperature overflow during fluxing.
 Try reducing the convection time step control tolerance and restarting.
 There seems to be a deadlock in MPI communication for this job.
 FORTE will attempt to kill all the active processes at this time.
 Otherwise the deadlock will simply hang all the processes forever.
 Please send this message, FORTE.log file and .ftsim case file to Ansys support.

Could anyone please help how I can resolve these errors?

Hello,
Can you please refine the mesh and try again?

[_aryaman]

when I try to refine the mesh I get the following error ::

For resolving this I've tried to increase the CPU cores to 16 and using 4GB space for the simulation, but still it crashes.

I don't know how but at one case the simulation ran sucessfully, altough still my model was not getting validated so now when I'm trying to vary the parameters to get the correct results I'm recieving the following error in each and every simulation::

Error: on rank0 reached unexpected location x in bcmombal for vertex11011 with ifirst =11011, momflagX(i4) =-1, vrflux(0,i4) =4, rimtab(i4) =23, cell_size(imtab(i4)) =128, r1tab(i4) =11014, i1tab(i4) =11014, vrflux(0,r1tab(i4)) =4, rimtab(r1tab(i4)) =11011, cell_size(imtab(r1tab(i4))) =128

Could you please tell what can I do here, I'm really stuck here for quite some time now.

Thankyou very much.

and
Have you found a solution for the error on rank?
I have the same issue half way my simulation.
Error: on rank1 reached unexpected location x in bcmombal for vertex63352 with ifirst =52349, momflagX(i4) =-1, vrflux(0,i4) =4, rimtab(i4) =1820, cell_size(imtab(i4)) =16, r1tab(i4) =221086, i1tab(i4) =221092, vrflux(0,r1tab(i4)) =4, rimtab(r1tab(i4)) =63352, cell_size(imtab(r1tab(i4))) =32

I can't find anything what might be the error..

I am getting this error and unable to resolve this i could not find anything on the forum. Can you please advise how to fix it.

I am trying everything possible to run The explicit dynamics model on HPC and I am really not able to understand how to get this to work.

Ansys documentation says do this
-genv ANSYS_EXD_MPI_TYPE intelmpi -host [machinenameA] -np 1 "/usr/ansys_inc/v221/autodyn/bin/autodyn221" -i ./admodel_0.ad -c 0
-genv ANSYS_EXD_MPI_TYPE intelmpi -host [machinenameB] -np [number_of_processes] "/usr/ansys_inc/v221/autodyn/bin/adworker221"
But when i do this on Mobaex term I keep getting error
\par \cf0\highlight0 [s@login01 MECH]$ -genv ANSYS_EXD_MPI_TYPE openmpi -host [login01] -np 5 autodyn191 -i ./admodel_0.ad -c 0\cf1\highlight2

Please tell me how to run explicit dynamics on HPC i am not able to find any tutorial about that anywhere.

I have the exact same error (C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v212\aisol\bin\winx64\fort.38) Is there a solution?

[satri]

check your firewall/network settings (it might be blocking ansys) or ansys installation folder permissions in your c drive to give full access permissions. it should solve the problem.
