Hi,

Your values of k and epsilon become negative. This means that there is a possibility of dividing by zero!

Try start upwinding the divergence terms for k and epsilon and see, if this helps in bounding the values of k and epsilon. Another problem could be your boundary conditions for k and epsilon. I have never worked with this type of turbulence model, but it seems that one has to be careful in order to get a stable solution.

All the best,

Niels
