CHEMKIN models fail in FLUENT R13.0 when run in parallel on Windows 7. Some linux versions may also be affected.
Errors such as these may occur:
OMP: Error #15: Initializing libiomp5md.dll, but found libguide40.dll already initialized.
OMP: Error #15: Initializing libiomp5md.dll, but found libguide40.dll already initialized.
OMP: Hint: This may cause performance degradation and correctness issues. Set environment variable KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK=TRUE to ignore this problem and force the program to continue anyway. Please note that the use of KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK is unsupported
and using it may cause undefined behavior. For more information, please see http://www.intel.com/software/products/support/.

In WB-Mechanical, if you scope a convection load to a whole body, all the faces are convecting. What happens on surfaces that also have a thermal contact relationship and are in a closed condition? Is the convection deactivated at these locations? |
No. When you define surface convection to the environment, WB-Mechanical meshes all these surfaces with SURF152 elements. At locations that have closed contact, convection heat transfer still... |

When comparing element table reaction forces in ELBOW290 with those in PIPE289 and BEAM188 for identical model,
the table of reaction forces for elements 289 and 188 agree with each other but not with ELBOW290.
For ELBOW290, FX is reported as a constant value and this value appears to be an average of the variable list of numbers reported for 289 and 188.
Is this by design? |
This is a defect (DE30176) in R14 that has been corrected for R14.5.
