The simulatio is unstable. There can be many reasons for it. Have you tried a finer resolution? You can stop the simulation shortly before it gets to infinity and output the results and check for the results in oder to find a possible source by looking at the location of high values.
mathiasKeymasterAll particle related code parts does not support GPU usage yet.
mathiasKeymasterInteresting, yes! And same cubic mesh alligned sencils mentoned in the publication might be realizable in OpenLB. It would be good to see a convergence study with absolute errors stated for benchmark cases to be compared with standard LBM stencils. For some problems, like radiative trasport equation, there is a similar sencil already implemented. Please, check for the publications of McHardy and Mink.

2/ Can be done in OpenLB without any external tools, since in OpenLB there is DEM (point particle and resolved particles with HLBM). Coubling with other tools are possible but in general not really efficient, esspiecially using CPU/GPU clusters!March 25, 2025 at 11:24 am in reply to: The determination of gas density in free-surface examples. #9954mathiasKeymasterThis method is refferred to as “Free Surface” in the context of LBM. It does model surface tension but not he gas phase. If you want to also model the gas dynamics, you should use a multi-phase/component method as “pseudo potential”, “free engergy” or “phase field”.
mathiasKeymasterSuch detailed support we cannot offer in the framework of the forum. You may consider coming to the next spring school or look into the options here https://www.openlb.net/consortium/.
mathiasKeymasterYou are asking for detailed support which is beyond the scope of the forum. You may consider our next spring school or https://www.openlb.net/consortium/ .

mathiasKeymasterThere will be an update in the next release. Yet, we need your and the other users and developeres support, see https://www.openlb.net/consortium/.
February 20, 2025 at 3:51 pm in reply to: Identification of Geometric Model Errors in Multiphase Flow Simulations #9897mathiasKeymasterWithout knowing details, it is not possible to help you. In the spring school we explain step by step how to do it and also in the user guide is a section on it. Individial support we can also offer based on a support contract. If so, please contact the OpenLB team using the contact form.
February 19, 2025 at 10:15 pm in reply to: Identification of Geometric Model Errors in Multiphase Flow Simulations #9894mathiasKeymasterDid you check on the material numbers? Are they set correctly?
February 17, 2025 at 10:37 am in reply to: “Simulating turbulent flow in a compound channel with LES.” #9886mathiasKeymasterDifficult to answer. It depents on your experience in CFD and C++-programming. A good start in OpenLB provides our anually spring school!
February 15, 2025 at 10:37 am in reply to: Resolved Particle with Contacts Simulation in MPI mode #9884mathiasKeymasterYes, OpenLB uses MPI and it is working fine, see all examples on that topic. You can use git bisect in oder to find the last version of your code which was working.. “Since I have modified the code in many files”.
mathiasKeymasterDid you initialize the fields also at nodes with material number zero? Any fields needs to be initialized at all material numbers correctly!
mathiasKeymasterHave a look at our user guide and maybe come to our next Spring School!
