How can I solve the "insufficient memory" problem in ANSYS workbench 17.0?

The solution is stopped with following error when I use finer mesh. "Insufficient memory was available for the solver engine to obtain a solution. Try simplifying the model to reduce problem size....

During SOFC operation and thermal cycling, how are the stresses induced in sealant?

Is there any source in addition to thermal expansion difference? What kind of stresses can be induced as a consequence of the treatment conditions? Which of them is more important?

Using liquids as superstrate in Fabry-Perot Cavity Antenna?

Hi, A Fabry Perot Cavity allows to increase the directivity of a low gain antenna by putting in the top of cavity a superstrate with high permittivity such as a ceramic (er=10.2). However,...

Is it possible to model a pressure-activated sealant in Ansys fluent?

I am trying to figure out how you'd model a pressure-activated sealant within Ansys fluent. This would be able to seal over a small crack, represented by a pressure differential, on the inside of...

Would a non-Newtonian fluid be the best way to approximate the flow of large particles in Ansys which can plug a leak?

I am trying to model the sealing of a leaking water pipe within Ansys fluent, using the insertion of a stream of particles into the pipe, which would be forced into the gap by the pressure...
