Hello ESP-r community
I am modelling a passive ventilation system with the air flow facility in
ESP-r. In my system I have a heat exchanger with the characteristics dP =
5.6e-3 x m + 4.8e-5 x m^2
This calls for a quadratic flow component type 20 or 25 to model the heat
exchanger in my system.
However using any of the two causes this error message:
Please check (in the following order) that:
- each node has some flow path to a boundary pressure and
- iteration convergence control is not too strict
Day xx Month xx Hour xx: 100 iterations; flow solution failed
Using power law components (e.g. 10, 15 or 17) does not generate this error
message and I can't find the iteration convergence control (for integrated
simulations). What am I doing wrong?
I am using esp-r version 11.2 from learnix.
