Glas and convergence failures

Post by Crna »

Hey everybody!
I´m still working on a parameter study concerning the impacts of different windows in a reveal.
So far I worked with stationary climate conditions in- and outside and it worked very well.

Now I want to adopt my models with instationary conditions (outside: Holzkirchen, Reference Year; Inside: Sine Curves, Medium Moisture Load).
However, now I get an high amount of convergence failures: With a good window >100, with a bad window >500.

I´d made my grit more fine-mashed, but it didn´t help. I read somewhere that it might depent on the moisture storage function.
My glas material has a porosity of 0,001m³/m³ and the following moisture storage function:
RH=0,0 -> WC=0,0
RH=1,0 -> WC=0,00001
Do I have to change this function in some way?

And - apart of that - what mean these failures to my model? Are the results completely false?
Thanks for your help! Regards,
Crna
