"failed to find consistent initial values"

Hi,

I am trying to calculate a 2D fluidic process which is coupled with heating. I calculate the whole process step by step, using the solution of previous step as the initial values. But this fails at certain step, saying "failed to find consistent initial values". Why would this happen and what can I do now?

PS:
I didn't calculate the whole process in a total because it would go "out of memory". I didn't make the mesh much coarser because it would go divergent....

Thank you very much,
Xiao
