Good morning, sorry for the disturbance but I am trying to write the set-up of the ANSYS CFX tutorial on the steam jet (https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/public/account/secured?returnurl=/////////Views/Secured/corp/v242/en/cfx_tutr/i3385293.html) but the solver returns the error 'Error finding variable "PSAT_FL2" within domain "Domain". CCL is possibly invalid.'
Would it be possible to ask you for the courtesy of the already ready set-up to see where I am making a mistake? Thank you for your patience

At what point do you get this error? Based upon your limited description I would guess your error comes when trying step 29.4.2. If that is the case, your probably do not have automatic generation of the default domain activated. When you start CFX-Pre after creating new case, do you get the following message?

If not, then do the opposite and turn it on. Hopefully that solves your problem.

Hello, and thank you for your reply.

The error appears when I run the programme and launch the Solver Manager.

The message doesn’t appear when I launch Ansys CFX, although I always start with a Default Domain; I’ll try again on Monday.

I had also thought (wrongly) that perhaps the CEL variable was incorrect, so I entered the value "1 [bar]" directly instead of "Liquid.psaturation".

In this case, the error changed to:

 

+------------------------------------------ ------------------------- -+

| ERROR #001100279 has occurred in subroutine ErrAction. |

| Message: |

| Failed to calculate sources in GETSOU for RESSRC_A from director- |

| y "" at location "Condensation". Error return code is: FAIL |

Best regards

Thank you very much
