Default Large Scale Model

Does Fluent have a limitation on size of the domain? I am currently modelling a tank with 30m long and 4 m depth but the inlet and inlet are just 0.1m.

I setup a 2D mesh about 200,000 cells in total. But it takes 2 days to reach convergence. I am just wondering is it possible to scale down the model with a factor of 10? And once it is scaled down, will the result be unreliable?

Thanks for reading

HELLO how do not use non conformal meshes to eliminate numbers of cell? for example see this link http://gong.snu.ac.kr/down/on-line-d.../tg/node83.htm please reply me.
