I've been using OpenFOAM to simulate combustion. I began by simulating with the combustion model inactive, and then turned it on. Around 20 time steps after activating combustion, this happened:

Code:
solvers { Yi { solver PBiCG; preconditioner DILU; tolerance 1e-09; relTol 0; } } At first I thought that my chemistry model had malfunctioned and given non-physically large reaction rates, but then if this were the case then I would also expect the initial residual of H2O to be extremely large. This suggests to me that the problem is numerical. I'm wondering how to remedy this situation; specifically:

Hi,
Try to use smoothSolver Or BiCGStab , which is present in foam-extend

Thanks mkraposhin, this was helpful. I think that the real problem turned out to be my inlet conditions, however: I have a turbulentInlet BC and the magnitude of the fluctuations was far too large (over 0.1). My simulation has not diverged in this way since I've reduced the fluctuations (to more like 0.01).
