temperature error
 
temperature limited to 5.000000e+03 in 26 cells on zone 3 in domain 1 temperature limited to 5.000000e+03 in 80 cells on zone 4 in domain 1

Inspite of the above, I am getting convergence in my model. Are the results given by my model correct?

Re: temperature error
 
FLUENT, as many solvers, has limiting functions to try to keep stable the solution. The result can be correct if the temperature in the real case doesn't reach the value imposed by the limiter, while it isn't correct if the temperature could reach that value.

Usually it should be better to avoid the limitation by properly setting the solver according to your peculiar case.
