Dear members,

i made thermal energy storage model and while simulating the model it is giving followin error, could you please tell me, how to solve this problem

ERROR: Failed to solve non-linear system using Newton solver.
It could be that:
* the starting values are too far from the solution
- especially if this occurs at the starting point (see homotopy in the manual) - in rare cases it could occur at events
* the equations are too discontinuous for the non-linear solver (likely due to over-using noEvent) - the residual will have knees,
* the equations have no solution (note that in some cases the event-logic can cause this) - the residual will be above zero.
Jacobian has inverse norm 1.01442e-015 and condition number 7.78839e+013.
The residual is large, using better start values can be a solution.

i too got same error.....did you find the solution for that problem?....if yes, could you please tell me the procedure to solve the issue?.......

Thanks in advance
