Dear Martin,

I guess not, I took the first one that worked, after numerous failed attempts with other methods taken from random examples, though the said attempts might have failed because of me being a non-experienced user, and not because of the nature of the methods. Would you suggest to use an implicit method instead?

Best regards,

Dmitry

Dear Dmitry,

if I remember correctly, the sequential MPFA-L scheme requires that each vertex is surrounded by 4 quadrilaterals (in 2D).
If this is not the case, the construction of interaction volumes fails.

Is there any reason why you are using the sequential method?

Best regards,
Martin

Dear Kilian,

1.) You should be able to use more recent versions of gmsh if you go to File -> 
Export. If you name your grid *.msh

there will be an option to chose the older Version II ASCII format, readable by 
Dumux.
Thank you!
2.) Have you tried an unstructured grid with quadrilaterals? According to the 
header where the error comes from,
only quadrilaterals are supported (at least, this is what some comments in the 
code suggest). You can force gmsh to
use only quads (also unstructured ones).

I just tried an unstructured quad grid and got the same error. However, a gmsh-generated structured quad grid went fine, which means that there is no trouble with gmsh itself.

Good news: using FVPressureTwoPAdaptive instead of FvMpfaL2dPressureTwoP allowed me to use an gmsh-generated unstructured grid (both triangular and quadrilateral). I am wondering whether MPFA-L in DuMux "officially" requires a structured quad grid.


Best regards,

Dmitry
