[petsc-users] TS failed due to diverged_step_rejected

Fri Feb 17 11:09:18 CST 2023

My code uses TS to solve a set of multi-fluid MHD equations. The jacobian is provided with function F(t, u, u'). Both linear and nonlinear solvers converge but snes repeats itself until gets "TSStep has failed due to diverged_step_rejected."

Is it because I used TSStep rather than TSSolve? I have checked the condition number. The condition number with pc_type asm is about 1 (without precondition it is about 4x10^4). The maximum ratio of off-diagonal jacobian element over diagonal element is about 21.

Could you help me to identify what is going wrong?

Thank you very much!
