August 20, 2013, 10:17	Continuity does not converge	#1
howhs New Member Join Date: Jul 2013 Posts: 18 Rep Power: 12	Hi people! I am currently doing a very simple case on natural convection. Basically, I will have a fluid domain from a piping. The 2 faces will have different temperature (hot and cold face) and the circumferential face will be adiabatic. I am using k-epsilon model with enhanced wall treatment together with buoyancy effect and curvature correction. My y+ value is set to be 5. Y value is calculated from the max velocity ontained from the natural convection and ANSYS Mesh is used. I have tried several time but I cannot seem to have the continuity converged. May I know what are some of the possible issue which i can look into? Thank you for your time.
