Compressible flow solving - issues with "Floating point exception"

Hello everyone! I'm having trouble with solving this compressible flows problem and it seems like I can't get the solver to get going no matter what I do. The most common error I'm seeing is "Floating point exception" - perhaps my Google-fu isn't strong enough, but I can't seem to find a straight answer for what this actually means.
A little background on the problem: I'm trying to simulate a CD nozzle that takes air (1500 K, 500 m/s, 10MPa) at its inlet. I've designed the nozzle such that the flow will be fully expanded and supersonic at the exit (100 kPa). Eventually, I want to be able to simulate the addition of solid nanoparticles in the flow, but that may be way above my current understanding... The characteristic length is the nozzle inlet diameter (0.02 m) and calculated exit speed is 1610 m/s, giving deltaT an order of magnitude of around 1e-7. I've attached my .geo(.txt) use for my mesh and a recent error output to this post, and also relayed my settings below. Thank you in advance to anyone willing to take the time to help me! #### # 0 # ################################################ p Code:

I think I may have narrowed the issues down to the mesh itself, but I have zero idea what could be wrong with it??

Hi,
You should pay attention to the warning ta the begining of the log : Code:
rhoMin' specified rather than 'pMin' or 'pMinFactor'
This is supported for backward-compatibility but 'pMin' or 'pMinFactor' are more reliable.
Cheers. |

Unfortunately, that didn't seem to do anything other than remove the warning... |
