Good day, i was running a multiday simulation and of course the power went out about half way through the simulation. I figure i would just set up a restart to finish off the time remaining. But the every time i try and and run the restart i'm getting this error. i've never had an error like this on a restart from a simulation that was running with no errors. its probably something simple that i'm missing.



thank you

Time step < dtmin. ..... the error which can be caused by multiple issues and difficult to track. However i would suggest to

1) Restart simulation from an earlier time step which you are selecting might help to run the simulation.

2) If step 1 doesn't work, Restart simulation from an earlier time step with a bit coarser mesh. When you find model is running stable, you can stop and add another restart simulation with fine mesh of your desire.
