Solution not converging with Surface Tension modeling

I'm simulating a case for "Single bubble condensation in sub-cooled water". The simulation is working fine. But, as soon as I try to run the simulations with Surface Tension, it doesn't converge at all. Following are the details of my simulation and error
Simulation Details Transient Pressure based VOF +Explicit + Lee Model + PISO + Geo Reconstruct Time step is 0.001 s Error Details When I enable the surface tension option and run simulations - after few iterations, my courant numbers starts to jump follow by -Stabilizing temperature to enhance linear solver robustness. -Divergence detected in AMG solver: temperature -Error at Node (3,4,5,6 keeps on going): floating point exception -Error: floating point exception -Error Object: #f -Calculation complete. I have tried different values of surface tension with wall adhesion as well, but it didn't work. I have gone through the literature and they modeled the same problem with surface tension. it was mentioned that to simulate the proper shape of the condensing bubble, surface tension should be modeled. But, unfortunately, it isn't working for me. Please let me know what wrong with the setup? Last edited by faizan356; July 28, 2021 at 04:00. Reason: I had to add something useful from the literature . |
