    Hello, I don't know why the temperature cross scenario occurred at the evaporator. It seems like there is no chance to happen due to the temperature difference between the heat source (air 445C at evaporator inlet) and the working fluid (R1233zde 250 C at evaporator outlet)

    I'm confused a lot. If anyone can help, I'll appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance

    Try changing the Efficiency on the Evap to something less than 100%, say 85%. That insures there is a temperature difference between the cold inlet and the hot outlet streams.

      I've tried by input more heat loss (cannot input efficiency) but it still not work.

    I came across the same error recently along with "Recycle reached the maximum number of Iterations without converging". I am using n-pentane a s the working fluid.
