Are you authoring the model?  Or implementing someone else's?

What sort of convergence problems are you having -- dc and/or time=0, or in the middle of a transient?

Strong nonlinearities or discontinuous equations are common culprits.

If at first you do succeed, STOP, raise your standards, and stop wasting your time.
