Hi Peter, After thinking this "Steady state convergence tolerance" matter a bit more and after reading one of your former post explaining the 3 convergence nested levels (liner, nonlinear and loosely coupled equations system) I think I understand now what is the "Steady state": w...

Hi Peter, Thanks for your answer. But I still don't feel exactly what this convergence criterion (which I understand for non-linear and linear iterations when using a solver) is for " steady state ". What do you mean exactly by "Steady state" ? What confuses me is that you refer ...

Hi, Thanks Kevin for your reply. But how could this stopping criterion be applied to the equation? What is the error expression defined for this equation which gathers all the concerned solvers? Is there something like a flowchart which could describe this kind of convergence test? Thanks in advance...

Hi, Concerning the linear/non linear convergence tolerance of a solver is roughly ok for me about the understanding of how it works. But I don't understand how the "Steady state convergence tolerance" works when using a solver. How is this convergence tolerance taken into account? Could so...

Hi, Just for information about using the Theeshold filter here attached is a plot of the time dependant "Crystal Growth in Cold Crucible" model which shows (at t=200s): - temperature field (colour) in the liquid/solid Silcon body (the phase change interface is the thick white line) -magnet...

Thanks a lot, I will try this and keep you informed.

Hi,
Thank you Kevin for this interesting setting.
As your image of the two bodies is not very clear and too blurry to read its left side, could you please resend it with more pixel precision so that I can read your Paraview left window settings?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
Thanks Peter and Lauri, I will try these things and keep you informed.

Hi,
Yes I agree with you, I will perhaps see this with the Paraview support.

Hi, As discussed in former topics, we work on the setting up of a multiphysics "crystal growth in cold crucible" 2D axisymmetric time dependant model which is now in encouraging progress (except for some points to improve, like the increasing of the physical solve time, some remaining free...
