I have following physics defined for one fluid and one solid:

I see temperature raises quite rapidly but not pressure etc any ideas why? |

Hi,
You could create a threshold to see where the temperature is rising and check if the mesh is good in those locations. If the mesh is not so good, you could try and change the mesh. |

I cannot find anything wrong with your mesh statistics.
Make sure your interfaces are good. What I was suggesting is that you create a threshold for temperature above your expected maximum. For eg. if you are expecting the max temperature would be about 400 C, create a threshold for temperature > 500 C. As you run your simulation, look at the threshold. This will show you where the temperature is initially going high. This would give you a better idea of what is happening. |

well, I cannot say much about interfaces , as they are not used much
also, boundary conditional etc does not contain any temperature differences.. Literally no ideas where such, immediate temp. raise is coming from also, temperature raises pretty much on the velocity vector of the flow any help in "debugging" is welcome ! |
