Temperature rise during endothermic reaction

Hi!
I'm trying to simulate the thermal decomposition(pyrolysis) of urea(CH4N2O) into ammonia(NH3) and isocyanic acid(HNCO). This is endothermic reaction, △H>0. However, in the result of this simulation, the temperature increases. (There is no heat source.) I defined the reference specific enthalpy -3.9e6 J/kg for urea, -4.75e5 J/kg for ammonia, -2.76e6 J/kg for isocyanic at 25 C and 1 atm. What should I check more to simulation the endothermic reaction? Thank you! |

Are you sure your simulation is converged?
