Hi:
I am trying to simulate gs-solid flow in a pipe using DPM. After some iterations it gives me error:

Divergence detected in AMG solver: epsilon

Please suggest!!

Thanks

You should use time step size small enough to satisfy the Courant number if explicit scheme is used.

Thanks alot for the reply. I am using time step = 0.0001. I still need to reduce it.

thanks
