June 24, 2013, 13:19	simpleFoam temperature blows up	#1
tellico New Member Debb Join Date: Sep 2011 Location: Toronto, Canada Posts: 20 Rep Power: 14	I've been using a modified simpleFoam solver to include temperature which compiles correctly and is running smoothly however the temperature explodes after the first timestep. Despite the crazy values for T, the U and p results seem to be correct. I noticed a lot of iterations were required for T and p, so I tweaked the FVsolution file as per this post: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...terations.html are there any other tricks that I might try to get this model to behave?
