Martin1 Member Martin Join Date: May 2015 Posts: 30 Rep Power: 11	Hi, I simulated a turbulence flow of an elliptical pipe which converged and I got reasonable results. Then I did the same simulation but this time I changed the orientation of the major and minor axis. Now my residuals are positively increasing and the flow is dissapering. I don't now why it does like this. Does anyone have an idea? Also after some iterations, the mesh of the inlet disappears as well Last edited by Martin1; May 12, 2015 at 19:41.
