Hi,

I am trying to solve the equation for flow through an orifice using
DASKR (the newest DASSL code).

My equations are:

equation[0]  = y[0] - sqrt(y[1])
equation[1] = yPrime[1] - K;

y[1] here is the pressure drop across the orifice and y[0] is the flow
through it. and K is the rate of change of pressure drop (and it is a
positive number).

My initial flow and pressure drop at time = 0 are:

y[0] = 0
y[1] = 0

I have a problem, however, with the initial value of derivatives.
While the value of derivative of y[1] is alwayws going to be K, the
derivative of y[0] at time = 0 must be inifinity. On paper this is
okay because yPrime[0] is going to decay as y[1] increases linearly.
However, in the numerical solver I can't in anyway supply and initial
value of infinity to yPrime[0].

I would like to know if anyone else has faced similar problems with
this kinda equation. If so, how did you handle it?

There is enough information to know, but perhaps you could get around
the problem by introducing arc length as the independent variable.
You then have one more differential equation to solve for the
independent variable.
