this is free convection model,

but I don't know why this model does not converge.

do you guys have any idea?

thank you

Hi

I'm not a CFD specialist, but you have a singularity at the lower left corner of your model:

Two adjacent BC's with two different temperatures.

Perhaps you sould leave a small region with thermal isolation down there at least 2-3 mesh elements wide or height, horizontally or vertically

I cannot see anything else obvious for me ;)

Good luck
