January 10, 2021, 13:24	Solution diverges because of kinematic viscosity value	#1
tyskies New Member Kermit Join Date: Jan 2021 Location: France Posts: 19 Rep Power: 5	Hello everyone! I'm currently trying to simulate the turbulent flow over a flat plate (2D) with the solver simpleFoam. I've been doing some simulations without problem until I find that the kinematic viscosity value that I specified in the transportProperties file wasn't the right one. So I changed it to a value of 1e-6 (liquid water) and now the solution diverges... Anyone know what is the problem here ? tyskies Last edited by tyskies; January 12, 2021 at 05:13.
