How to deal with the flow field and get the pressure drop in magnetorheological fluid valve mode?

Hi,
Everyone.

Attached is a simple magnetorheological fluid valve model (Comsol 3.5a) with an uniform magnetic field (already obtained), but the errors occured as follows when the flow field was simulated.

Error:
Failed to find a solution:
No convergence, even when using the minimum damping factor.
Returned solution has not converged.

It is also known that magnetorheological fluid shows a good sealing performance in valve mode, and the pressure drop can be expressed as:

ΔP=12Ηql/(g^3w)+fτ(H)L/g

where η is the dynamic viscosity, Q is the flow rate, L ,w, g is the geometric length, width and gap size of the flow channel, τ(H) is the yield stress developed in response to the applied magnetic field, and the other factor f is an empirical factor and is determined experimentally.

And how to get the pressure drop ΔP by simulating the model?

Your suggestions are highly appreciated!
