I am running a transient case study and the running progress is 0% for almost 6 hours… I am wondering what would be the problem since its my first time to run a transient case study.
Hi!
Transient simulations require a little bit more caution than steady-state runs, especially with mesh/simulation control, and numerics. Here’s a pretty insightful webinar that goes into these in more detail.
With that being said, transient simulations are usually more demanding then steady-state studies, for which reason it is very common to see users running steady-state simulations initially and then (if needed) transitioning to transient.
What objective do you have for this study? Depending on the objective you can get the necessary information with a steady-state simulation instead of going transient.
Cheers
