I have a problem with weak constraint in laminar flow, where i constraint the inlet pressure (p_inlet) as average pressure with constraint expression: aveop1(p) - p_inlet (laminar flow>weak constraint). Meanwhile, I implement a velocity function at the same inlet boundary (laminar>inlet).
However I faced the error below:
Failed to find consistent initial values.
Singular matrix.
There are 1 degrees of freedom that do not occur in any equation (empty columns in matrix) for the variable mod1.lm.
at coordinates: (0,0), ...
Last time step is not converged.
May I know what's wrong with my boundary setting and how to solve this error?
Thanks.
