Solution appears to be diverging.

I just ran a simple 2d airfoil solution on 0 degrees angle of attack. While Calculating solution the graph seems to keep diverging however no error messages are displayed and no solution appears either.
Assuming that my 4-domain mesh was correct (created in Workbench, on a NACA 4 series custom airfoil, namely NACA 2205), can anyone tell me what is wrong with my Case settings and/or Solution settings?? I tried initializing by both hybrid and standard initialization methods. the graph still appears to be continuously diverging. For the problem statement of 0 degrees angle of attackSolver: Pressure-based (since velocity is very less) Model: viscous-Inviscid, Energy-Off Material: Fluid-air --> constant --> 1.225 operating Condition: 101,325 Pa Boundary Conditions: Regions far ahead and above of airfoil (also some area far above but behind airfoil) assigned as Velocity-inlet with component x=10 m/s, y=0 m/sReference Values: computed from Inlet (the Boundary ahead of Airfoil and above) Solution Methods Spatial Discretization--> Pressure: PRESTO! Spatial Discretization--> Momentum: Second Order Upwind I chose simple Cl monitor along with residuals. with both methods of initialization at a time. solution keeps diverging but shows no error, just stops after the given iterations. Can someone help?? |
