and in my version of prepomax, i do not have the ability to select “time” from the menu. Look at 17:56 of the video, maybe a few seconds before that. My CFDOF did not create folders for the time stamps… reconstructPar was added to the file
Second, in the video, the pressure is sclaed by 1.2 but i do not have that option. The only scale factor i have is for geometry. Unless magnitude factor is now the scale factor.
when i hit ok, it says the openfoam has no results hahaha. I do know it finished successfully because paraview can open it
Correct and i do have the dummy file, but for some reason it has no results according to prepomax. When 8 try to load the dummy file, it errors out and brings up that message.
Its also odd that yhe only time stamp folder i have is 0. Does the newer versions of open foam still make the time folders?
If the reconstructPar command didn’t work when set up before the simulation for some reason (maybe a typo or something), you can still use the OpenFOAM command prompt, navigate to that folder and use the same command from there on the existing results. It should create the timestamp folders outside of the processor ones.
would not having the time stamp folders cause the “does not contain results” error?
I might just redo the entire tutorial again. I am on a laptop and so maybe something in the background caused an issue. But i will try it again : ) ill update you today at somepoint.
It is not resolved, it doesnt load in prepomax at all. Same error. It loads fine in para view but not prepomax. As shown above, there are no time directories created from cfdof even when using the reconstructPar command.
Prepomax, as soon as i load the dummy file, will show the error “no results” but clearly that is incorrect because para view shows them
I was having the same issue and resolved (ish) though the OpenFOAM commandline as suggested by Calc_em.
I think the Allrun file including edits is being rerwritten when the solver is run.
For anyone else having this issue:
the commandline (on Windows) is in “…\Program Files\ESI-OpenCFD\OpenFOAM\v2212” or whatever version of OF you have installed.
run OpenFOAM-MSYS2.bat and navigate through the MSYS command line to your case directory and run reconstructPar from there
