Transient - Momentum Source

In this days I run some stationary problems in a module of heat exchanger at low Re appling a "Momentum Source" and "periodic" boundary condition for inlet-outlet.
Growing up the velocity we know that in this problems we have some non-stationary effect, so the question is: "Is it possible to define a momentum source in a "transient" simulation?" In theory if you define a Mom.Source you specify a constant deltaP, but in a transient phenomena the delta P is variable! In fact I tried and after some iterations the solver stopped due to very high Mach number (floatin point error)!!! Maybe someome can help me to turn the problem... THANKS. |

Hi,
Yes, it is possible to implement a transient source. I suspect your floating point error is caused by divergence in the simulation. Regards, Glenn |

Ok, but I've tryed with both constant and time-dependent values of the Mom. Source (e.g. t*100) and everytime I got the same error. The mesh is ok, because with stationary run, I got good results.
How do I have to proceed? Thanks |
