In my experience, displacement ventilation simulation works great with boussinesq aproximation for buoyancy. You will encounter more numerical stability using boussinesq rather than real gas state equation.

perhapls helps you to run calculations in transient mode, reducing g value to add an extra "relaxation" for momentum equations. Then increase g value untill the desired conditions.

Sorry for my english

Regards
I meet the same error,but if there is no free surface the model is ok.
