No idea what I'm doing wrong

Hi,

I’m trying to run a test on a Winning Model for the F1 in Schools competition and am having some issue. No idea if the fault is with the actual model or my CFD test. Any help would be incredibly appreciated,

Hello James,

I had a look at your project. Here are some comments:

  • Have you already followed the steps in this article? It shows the main troubleshooting steps when divergence occurs.
  • There are definitely bad cells in the domain, which could be causing issues. A good idea is to go through this article, to check & improve the regions where the poor cells are:

  • Finally, for external aerodynamics, I’d highly recommend enabling potential flow initialization. It helps with stability early on during the sim.

Cheers
