Dear forum:

I am running a simulation of a river, including flood plains in TELEMAC2D. The mesh and the BC file (.cli) were generated in Blue Kenue from scratch. When trying to run the simulation I get the following error:

I tried generating the file again from the mesh I am using, recopying both files to the simulation folder and nothing. I changed the initial elevation to higher and higher values also to no avail. Any clue on what this could be?

Thanks!

Rodrigo

Hello Rodrigo,

Your boundary conditions file is not ok. On open boundaries you have to set the tracer code (eight column into the .cli file) either as 4 (open boundary with free tracer) in case that it (the boundary) doesn't have any tracer or as 5 (open boundary with prescribed tracer) in case that it has any tracer. In your boundary conditions file you leave it as it is by default: 2, which means it is a closed boundary.

I think that's the problem, so, try with the boundary conditions file attached.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
José Andrés.

Hello,

Before running your configuration in parallel mode, try first in sequential, it's always easier to investigate ;)
Your boundary file is not right, but maybe not because of tracer code.

As shown by the pictures below, I found at least 2 mistakes :
- the node 24728 should not be in the boundary file
- the node 23752 should be on the contrary

I didn't look at the whole boundary points, but you have to check it.
You can also add in your steering file "CHECKING THE MESH = YES".
You'll see that you have several boundary points with only 2 neighbours and 78 over-constrained triangles. It can work but it's not recommended.

Regards,
Laurent
