The case dies with the current release and looking at the plot3d file that is dumped, there is a region of very high heat release rate per unit volume. Your input file has this surface:

&SURF ID='Surface01',
RGB=26,204,26,
VOLUME_FLOW=-1.0E-5,
TAU_V=-1.0,
MASS_FRACTION=1.0,
SPEC_ID='PROPANE',
TAU_MF=1.0/

This emits a fuel air mixture for the first second. I changed to TAU_MF=0 so it is always pure fuel like HRRPUA does. The case got past the point of failure. This is suggesting that at the fine grid resolutions the premixed condition was resulting in too high of a volumetric heat release rate. @rmcdermo you may want to look at this case.
