My first PDE

Hi , we are two undergraduates students who are trying to solve a system of five PDE's in COMSOL.
We have been able to do this in MATLAB but are unable to achieve this in COMSOL. To start of we tried to implement a simple diffusion PDE using the coefficient PDE solver. We have troubles simulating our system. Can someone explain why?
SPECIFICS
-Geometry: 100 mm^2
-Coefficients: C = 4.9*10^-6, da = -1, all other 0.
-intial value: 1*10^7
- boundary: Dirchlets r = 0 for all
- normal mesh, fine
Then we used the study tool (time dependent) and solved for time (0,1,10).
Error: "Differential-algebraic equation encountered. Use Singular mass matrix = Yes.."

Hi

Can you give me more info about your problem, If it is possible show me your PDEs that you would like to solve so I can check step by step.

Regards.

Ben.

Hi Ben,

Thank you for your interest in our problem. As for now we have managed to get some guidence from elsewhere but it can't hurt to get a second look at it! I have attached a PDF-document in this reply which is explaining our model and containing our PDE's.

Best regards,

Oliver

Hi Oliver,

I am running into a similar problem with my PDE interface. What sort of answers did you get/where did you get them in solving your problem?

Thanks,
Trevor
