Hi everybody,
I am trying to model a dissolution of Sn (or any metal) into a bath of liquid Ti (or any other metal). So far I have made very nice models of temperature profile (stationary and time-dependent). However, now I am interested in the solid/liquid interface (S/L) to see the heat transfer behavior during phase change. I am most interested in the heat of mixing (Enthalpy of mixing) of 2 different metals, I am not sure if it could be calculated by Comsol, but at least, I want to make an approach watching heat flux behavior.
I took the phase change model (Tin melting front) from model Libraries, but I changed the liquid phase from Sn to Ti and I established different conditions, in order to make my own model. However it shows me this error that I dont know how to fix it......please help !!! (see my attached file)
Repeated error test failures. May have reached a singularity.
Time : 0
Last time step is not converged.
- Feature: Time-Dependent Solver 1 (sol1/t1)
Thanks in advance
Michael
