Solution Diverged Error

Hey everyone, I have a similar problem to this post: Solution Diverged - Bad Elements but I just can’t seem to find the problem in my model? I have tried everything from moving my “fan” away from the wall to mesh refinements and changing the relaxation. Anyone has any suggestions?

Tagging @Retsam as well as @DaleKramer here. Andrzej, I think you worked on the coanda effect in the past and can give our user some useful tips on the issue? :+1:

Cheers and take care!

@rishi_kumar: that project has nothing related to Coanda effect.

The problem is possibly linked to putting air into closed room, with no outlet for flow.

I suggest to replace your ‘fan’ with ‘momentum source’: You need to define a geometry of the size of your fan (a cylinder, suspended below your ceiling, not touching the ceiling) and use Advanced concepts > Momentum sources.

Take care,

Retsam
