You are using a minimum and maximum time step of 1 s. So if the solver needs a smaller time step to converge, it can&#8217;t use a time step of say 0.1s or 0.001 s. Try the following:&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Number of Steps: 1&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Auto Time Stepping: On&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Define By: Time&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mininum Time Step: 0.001s&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maximum Time Step 0.1 s&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If it still doesn&#8217;t converge play around with these values (try reducing the minimum time step) and see if that helps.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-326232","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/326232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reply"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/326232\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=326232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
