Hi

I would suggest to check if the initial conditions are not too far off, or if you have something marginally "unique" i.e. BC's almost linearly related that does not give a clear path for the solver

Good luck

thanks Ivar,
what do u mean by" marginally unique"

Hi

all depends on the model, most PDE has many or infinite number of valid solutions, your BCs are there to get down to ONE single one, but sometimes your BC's are not orthogonal enough.

You believe you have the right count of BC's but two are almost identical or lined up or lets say linearly related
This means that you are in fact missing one boundary condition.

Then I notice that COMSOL might have problems to identify the single solution and your results looks noisy, but if you look at the "envelope" of the solution shape you can distinguish two valid solutions, and the results are flipping between the two at i.e. each (or almost) solver step. For me an indication that I need to better define my BC's or add one more, still the question which one ;)
