Hi,
I have inlet oscillating velocity boundary condition of 20*sin(3.2892*t) at inlet and exit boundary condtion as 1 atm. pressure for a simple 3D cylindrical geometry.When I tried to solve this problem it is displaying the error 'Failed to obtain consistent initial values'.The I tried to obtain the initial values by going to the option 'Solver parametes-time stepping-time steps taken by solver-INITIALIZATION ONLY' settings.Then I ran the problem,still its showing the same error message. ie, while trying to find the consistent initial values itself it is displaying the same error.Can anyone help me in this regard...
with thanks,
S.M.Ananth
