Hi,

I am currently performing some simulations of GDI combustion. But I met problems when apply both spray model (Reitz and MIP2) and ECFM-3Z combustion model. The simulations were stopped because of either negative density or the divergence. Trimming method is adopted to get the mesh.

I would like to know the reason for the failure of the simulations. Could anyone help me about this? Thanks.

Best regards,

John

check the Courant number,if it is too large, plz decrease the timestep and try again.

It seems reducing the timstep could not solve this problems.
Thank you all the same.
