I am looking for a tutorial that considers buoyant effects in a heated WATER tank. Most of the buoyant examples use air as the working fluid, and my attempts to switch to water properties fail miserably. Thanks!

Hi Strumm,

This type of problem is usually caused by typing errors. Also, think about your problem, when you change the fluid, you may also be changing the laminar<->turbulent flow regime, which can cause a crash.

Also, in situations like this, you have to be more precise: describe your problem and the error messages carefully.
