Convergence Problem

agung123 · March 31, 2015, 04:53

Dear all,

hey, i have a problem with my project about gas lift injection. My solution cant converged, the residual is increase. I decreased the under relaxation factor (especially for momentum value) after i realized the residual is increased. I also monitor the inlet static pressure, and it seems to be good. My solution is like the below picture, so, my question is, is it okay or not?

Thanks and best regards

Looks reasonable, as long as you didn't set the urf's to very small values. I would try to return the urf's back to the defaults to see if has any affect.

Thank you sir, i have increased the URF and nothing happens with the surface monitor, i think the solution has converged. Thanks for you help
