failed to find consistenet initial values

what should I do with this error ?

and My MUMPS allocation factor increased . if i do not now anything about the initial values of my problem , what should I do ?

should I change the solver ?

I have multiphysics problem and I use Transient Initialization solver too before my time dependent.

what should I do to get rid off this error ?

thanks

Hi

I would rather look at the BCs and the initial values, probably you are start too far off the final result and the solver does not amange to get a fixed starting point, or you have one or several of your variables that are no continuous arounf the starting point.

I do not believe it's primarly a solver issue

Good luck

if I do not know the approximate range of my answers , what should I do ?

Hi

in may cases a reasonable guess, even a linear extrapolation is better than just "0"
