Kitchen Ventilation simulation

    • Christian Onuoha

      for my model, I am using Energy equation and Viscous(Laminar)
      - Material: fluid(air) solid(aluminium only one available)
      -Inlet(ac)
      -outlet(working with simulation extrapolation of pressure on window1&2, door, and extractor_fan)
      -wall(adding temperature value on kitchen equipments without adding the heat generation rate)
      - Initilization is Hybird
      -iterations 500

      the aim of the simulation is to simulate the ventilation of the kitchen space based on data gotten.

      Heyy, I need help. My simulation is not converging and its giving me errors.

      I'd start by checking the mesh - the mixed colouring red/grey on the walls(?) is a clue that something isn't right; that and it looks like there may be two sets of tet cells on that surface.
