Hi,

I got this error in my simulation, How should I solve it

Nonlinear solver did not converge. In Velocity u, Pressure p: No convergence, even when using the minimum damping factor. Time: 370.89765902442974 s. Last time step is not converged.

Thanks in advance, Reza

Make sure yo uhave well posed prolbem and well defined and imposed boudary condtions. If flow field it not converging, apply point pressure contraints.

I had the point pressure constratints. Actually I solved the problem by changing the scaling method for the velocity field (in study/solver configurations/Solution 1/dependent variable/velocity filed/scaling/initial value based.)

Hope it will help others as well.
