I have been getting negative initial temperature error while using rhoCentralFoam in OpenFOAM as the solution reaches a certain value of time. On increasing the order of the timestep, the negative temperature approaches 0 but doesnot quite reach it. How do I change the precision of the temperature calculation such that the 10^-6 order (say) value of temperature become 0. Or are there any other ways to solve this problem (what exactly causes this error)?
