ipcel issue

Post by kittysoman2013 » Sat May 23, 2020 10:37 am

Hi,

I was having some issues with SCF cycle convergence. Therefore, I set iprcel value to 45. But this in fact increase the memory requirements by multiple folds and the job aborted with out of memory error. Can anyone suggest if there is any way to reduce the memory requirement and get the SCF cycles converged at the same time?

Thank you.

Hi kittysoman2013,
Did you check other parameters like diemix, diemac before iprcell?
Best wishes,
Eric
