= Why is my HPC model getting unstable?
If there are no wet cells at the beginning of the simulation, the adaptive timestep can get quite big. Once the flow increases rapidly, instabilities can develop, which leads to oscillations in variables that grow over time, eventually leading to NaNs in the solution. Two situations can occur:
* The solver can't reduce the big timestep to a sufficiently small timestep within the ten default trials, the simulation gets unstable and the model is stopped with an error.
