CFD Online Discussion Forums - timePrecision increases too much : sessile droplet evaporation

Hello.

I'm trying to simulate sessile droplet evaporation in a surrounding hotter atmosphere and I am using a custom solver that I found online called interThermalPhaseChangeFoam. I tried to modify the BubbleCondensation tutorial that they have given to make it a droplet evaporation case.

The velocity seems to be attaining ridiculously high values in this case as a result of which the time step is increasing by itself to huge orders.

I think the problem might lie in the boundary conditions I've used as well. I'm not very sure of the boundary conditions that I've given.
