Hi Siva,

it seems that your boundary conditions are set up not correct.

Hi Siva,

I also got this error sometimes. Than I had to change my pressure bc at time 0. Have a look in the time folder 0.

Hi Siva,

if you sure you not make some misstake you can increase the iteration if I am not wrong with:

relTol 0.05;
minIter 1;
maxIter 1000;

Bye
Thomas
