CFD simulation of a room help...

Jonahprivett · March 21, 2016, 12:26

I'm simulating the fluid flow of air entering a room with a window and radiator and window, with an outlet at the other end of the room. Having trouble with achieving a 10E-5 convergence, using a tet mesh with inflation (700,000 elements). Currently using the k-epsilon turbulence model and I thought my boundary conditions were okay.

Any suggestions on how to get a better convergence?
