k residual goes up after temperature limitation warning???

Dear all,
I am modelling the combustion of methane-air in a stirling engine burner and after, say, 65 iterations and while all residuals decrease i get the temperature limitation (limited to 1K) warning and once I get it the k residual starts to increase (while all the rest keep going down). At the moment the warning is restricted to 1 to 3 cells. What I am using is the species transport with no reactions yet activated and the realizable k-ε turbulence model. The solution is steady state. I can tell that solution is at an early stage by a velocity monitor in my outlet which has not yet stabilised. I understand it might be too early to worry but I think whatever is wrong has started affecting other cells I am using a very fine tetra mesh with prism layers on the walls. my bocos are: mass flow inlet for my air and gas inlets with turbulence specification set to intensity and ratio - default values of 10% for both outflow for my exhaust coupled walls for components inside the burner where I must later compute conjugate heat transfer 0 heat flux for all other walls (e. g. the base of the burner) I am running this huge case on a super computer facility and I am a bit pressed in time so any suggestions would be most appreciated All the best |
