Elmer Discussion Forum

Hi everybody,
did anyone ever model a electric motor of some sort or does some tutorial exist how to do such kind of thing?

Thank you very much for all kind of answers!

Thank you!
This will be very helpfull!

Yes, I've done it multiple times, including reloading the model and remeshing an rebuilding it...
But I guess it's my fault if this problem didn't occur yet.

Hi there, while getting through the tutorial I get a strange bug. The Gui doesn't write the viscosity as well as the velocities for the boundary conditions. I can change the case.sif file manually and get the solver working. A reinstallation of Elmer didn't change anythin, so I guess theres somethin...

Hi there,
in the.xml-Files in the edf-Folder, there are often <whatis> annotations which tell really good what a specific input option does to the simulation project if set.
Is ther any butto or whatever I can Press so I get these annotations in ElmerGui without opening the xml-files?

Oh,
that's it... shame on me... As I'm new to elmer but not new to simulations in general... I should have known myself

Thank you very much!

Hi there everybody, I'm just trying to get familiar with Elmer and to do so, I've just started to get through the tutorials. However, when I'm just doing it the same way as described in the tutorial, ElmerSolver is crashing down with no explicitly offered message. I guess its the warning from the So...

Hi there, as some others I'm relativly new to Elmer. I just started to work on my doctor thesis with some (not yet really exactly specified) topic about multiphysics simulation. The Problem to solve is an AC asynchronous induction motor used as a pump, which is how I guess some really difficult to s...

First of all,
Thak you very much for all your answers.
I had a lot of other stuff to do so I just cam e to work on that problem today.
I will try every of your suggestions and then make a new post with my results.

Once again: Thank you very very much!

Hi there, I have some kind of problem, I can't figure out myself. With Windows everything works fine, but there are not all equations available as in the Ubuntu-Version. so I installed the Ubuntu version via synaptic. Now, the Gui opens and reading in .inp-files seems to work properly, even if the b...
