Error: Nonlinear solver did not converge

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I'm trying to study the effects of resistance in a pipe for periodic flow through it. I have currently made a 2D rectangular model where I have set the inlet boundary condition to be for a periodic normal velocity inflow and at the outlet a pressure where pressure equals zero. However, when I try to compute the simulation I receive the following error:

Nonlinear solver did not converge.
Time : 0.04845984897033385
Last time step is not converged.

Any help on the matter would be most appreciated.

Hi Mark
Did u can to solver ur problem?

I have the same error with a diferent simulation
