Hey guys

I am very new to openfoam, when i am using icofoam solver i have been facing this continuity error ,i am having an inflow in horizontal and outflow in vertical. i tried my ways to get over it , i am not able to can any body help me on this.

Error:

Continuity error cannot be removed by adjusting the outflow.
Please check the velocity boundary conditions and/or run potentialFoam to initialise the outflow.
Total flux : 376.432
Specified mass inflow : 20
Specified mass outflow : 7220
Adjustable mass outflow : 0


From function adjustPhi(surfaceScalarField&, const volVectorField&,volScalarField&)
in file cfdTools/general/adjustPhi/adjustPhi.C at line 118.
