HI !

I have a doubt in cfd module.

I have a converging pipe with two bifurcations and further converging section ..with a big bend in the initial section of the inlet.I guess there will be lot of issues in solving NS equation!!
I tried solving it using turbulent k-eps model .. and it failed to converge for 1 m/s .... so i tried to use laminar flow moduel and it converged for the inlet velocity range of 1-5 m/s.
but for turbulent flow model .. not even for a single parameter converges.
