Hi, Thanks for your quick reply. Just I wanna know if I can use the interpolated values of velocity at some arbitrary points in the domain (not necessarily the grid points) as the input arguments to theses subroutines.

Error in generalev
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Hello Neks, I've recently come across an error I haven't seen before. It occurs in the routine "generalev" at the beginning of my run. It looks like the matrix "a" and "b" being fed to the routine have an Infinity or NaN at position (0,0). Are there any ideas of what could cause this type of error? I have attached the logfile to this email. Thanks, -- Josh Camp "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" -- Edmund Burke

problem with closed internal boundaries
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Hello Neks, I'm trying to model a flow past an obstacle in a channel. As a first step I would like to do a 2D simulation. I'm encountering some problems during the geometry data generation in the nek5000 execution : it looks like the program can only generate NaN values although genmap seems to work well on the .rea file. I can also reopen the rea file with prenek without any problems. Do you have any idea what is going wrong here? Is it problematic to have a closed internal boundary condition? Thanks in advance for any help. Best, Michael B

opdiv and multd
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 10 Feb '13

10 Feb '13

Hi all, I am having some problems using the subroutines opdiv and multd. For some reasons they do not give me correct results. Do they need any special treatment or precautions? I was trying to compute the divergence of a 3D field, and i realized that in my case the multd subroutine used by opdiv does not gives good results, while the same derivative computed from gram1 gives no problems. For example, I overwrite an analytical field : ... parameter(lt=lx1*ly1*lz1*lelt) real Res(lt) ... vx(i,j,k,e)= 1.0*sin(x)*cos(y)*cos(z) ... call print_line(vx) ... iflg = 1 call multd (RES(1),vx,rym2,sym2,tym2,2,iflg) call print_line(Res(1) ) call gradm1(work1,Res(1),work2,vx) call print_line(Res(1) ) ... if (lx2.ne.lx1) then ... STOP endif and print output a (xr,:,zr) the result (performed by print_line) . In vxi.eps i compare the result (lines) with the analytical solution( symbols). The result of multd is not correct while all the others match perfectly the analytical solution. In vxy.eps i plot only the result of multd. Note that on y i have 12 elements the same number of peaks of the solution. Does anybody have an idea on how to fix this? Thank you very much for any help or suggestion francesco

Periodic B.C and Genmap Issue
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi Paul, This post is in reference to the previous post by Michael (dated Jun 22). When I try to get a map file for a rea file that has periodic vertices, I get the following error. The rea file was generated the same way as before (Gambit -> Nek through Matlab). I checked on Matlab by plotting the periodic vertices and confirmed for a few faces that they are indeed periodic. Also, as you had earlier suggested (with the new genmap), I tried changing the tolerances fro 0.09 to 0.2 and I get the same periodic mismatch error. Could you provide any leads on where things are going wrong ? Please find below the error message. Thanks. <error> Input (.rea) file name: domain Input mesh tolerance (default 0.2): NOTE: smaller is better, but generous is more forgiving for bad meshes. 0.09 reading .rea file data ... start locglob_lexico: 8 3912 31296 8.99999999999999967E-002 locglob: 1 1 31296 locglob: 2 36 31296 locglob: 3 1224 31296 locglob: 1 4851 31296 locglob: 2 4851 31296 locglob: 3 4851 31296 locglob: 1 4851 31296 locglob: 2 4851 31296 locglob: 3 4851 31296 done locglob_lexico: 4851 4851 31296 10 start periodic vtx: 3912 4851 abort: PERIODIC MISMATCH 2: 1093 1 P ie 0 1 je 4.14470000000000029E-003 0.0000000000000000 bc 8 quit </error> Regards Shriram

Lagrangian Particle Tracking
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hi, I have couple of questions regarding the subroutine given for Lagrangian particle tracking at the following wiki page and I wonder if there are any hints. http://nek5000.mcs.anl.gov/index.php/Data_processing_example - Where should this subroutine be inserted? - What are the variables "rtl" and "mr" representing? - How to set the initial positions of the particles? - Should the constant parameters "npart" and "dt_p" be inserted in SIZE file? Thanks in advance, Regards, Alireza Karimi

Re: [Nek5000-users] Running Simulations in Parallel with nekbmpi
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 27 Sep '11

Hi, I have lp=512 in SIZE, and I did compile with IFMPI=true. I recompiled yesterday because I thought this may be the case, but I was still getting the same error. When I first start a simulation and run top, it shows four processors running nek5000, but this changes to one processor after a few seconds. Thanks, John

explstrs routine
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hello Neks I came across the routine explstrs (and its subroutines) while exploring the code (and with the recommendation from Paul). I understand that it is essentially performing something like D^T * B * D * [u] I had a question about the use of the Jacobian in the routine expl_strs_e_3d (or _2d). Following the routine, I can see where it 1) Computes the gradients w.r.t. r, s, t (gradl_rst) 2) Multiplies these gradients by appropriate coordinate derivatives (rxm1, tzm1, etc) 3) Multiplies these results by the quadrature weights. (from w3m1) 4) Multiplies these results again by the coordinate transformations, and then apply the transpose operation (gradl_rst_t) When I look in coef.f, I see that when dr/dx, ds/dx, etc. are computed from dx/dr, dy/ds, etc., the inverse of the Jacobian is not applied yet. So, I can see why jacmi is multiplied along with w3m1 when multiplying by the quadrature weights. My question is, would we not need to multiply again by jacmi when the transpose derivative operator is applied (because of the use of rxm1, sxm1, etc)? Is this something that is applied later on, or am I missing something and it isn't necessary to apply it again?

Averaging in the y-z plane
by nek5000-users＠lists.mcs.anl.gov 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi Neks, I am trying to write a routine that averages over the y-z plane, yielding an array that varies in the x dimension. I have seen the planar_average_z routine in navier5.f that averages over x-y, and I have a planar_average_y routine that Paul sent me. So, I am trying to write planar_average_x. I have been able to proceed by analogy, except for the two lines in which the weighting coefficients are computed. I planar_average_z, yy = (1.-zgm1(j,2))/2. ! = 1 for j=1, = 0 for j=ny1 aa = yy*area(i,1,1,e) + (1-yy)*area(i,1,3,e) ! wgtd jacobian, fc 1&3 In planar_aveage_y, zz = (1.-zgm1(k,3))/2. ! = 1 for k=1, = 0 for k=nz1 aa = zz*area(i,1,5,e) + (1-zz)*area(i,1,6,e) ! wgtd jacobian Can someone tell me what the analogous lines would be for planar_average_x, as well as what the area tensor is? Thanks very much, David

Dear Nek developers, Kindly provide an update on 3D MHD example for Nek5000? I read in a year old thread that Aleks was working on that. Eagerly waiting for the example. Cheers, Rakesh
