Hi
while simulating the flow in parallel microchannels, i am getting the convergence (residuals) of continuity in the order of 10-2. Is their any way to increase the convergence of continuity equation? My results are affecting by such a low convergence of continuity equation. Regards, vikas |

Hi Vikas,
1. What type of problem your simulating ? 2. is mesh refined enough ? 3. what are the URF using in calculation ? Regards |

I am simulating flow in array of microchannel.
Grids are refined. URF used are P = .2, density = 1, Body Forces = 1, momentum = .7, energy = 1 |
