      Hello Most of the issues you are referring to - Convergence, Dynamic mesh failure, are related to having a poor starting mesh. Your diagnosis seems correct - you need to improve your overall mesh quality.
      To do that, there are a couple of things you can do:
      Decompose your geometry into smaller parts
      Add local mesh sizing in areas where there are small faces, edges, high curvatures etc.
      Fine-tune your global mesh settings to get a reasonable mesh.
      I vaguely remember that there was a Sim Cafe by Cornell University on Simulation of a Wind Turbine Blade. You could google this and see if this acts as an appropriate starting point for your analysis.
      Thank you.
