chtMultiRegionFoam when operated in Simple (steady state) mode is found to crash after a few iterations. This is noticed even when there is absolutely no heat transfer (keeping everything isothermal) - using OpenFOAM v8.

The attached 2D case illustrates this problem. It is a simple case of water flowing at high velocity through a narrow channel above a copper plate which is heated from below.

The case crashes after just 3 iterations with the message (crash report attached):

--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Negative initial temperature T0: -302.788

The case used to run perfectly fine with OF v6. Could anyone take a look please?
