5. Solution
Second Order Upwind Momentum Scheme
Solution > Solution Methods > Spatial Discretization.
Set Momentum to Second Order Upwind
Convergence Criterion
Solution > Monitors > Residuals > Edit....
Set the Absolute Criteria for , x-velocity and y-velocity all to 1e-6. Click ok
Solution > Monitors > Drag > Edit....
Then check Print to Console and Plot. Next, click cylinderwall, which is located under Wall Zones. Lastly, click ok
Solution Initialization
Solution > Solution Initialization.
Set Compute From to farfield1. Alternately, you can simply set X Velocity to 1 m/s. Then, click Initialize.
Iterate Until Convergence
Solution > Run Calculation.
Set the Number of Iterations to 2000. Then, click Calculate. (You may have to hit Calculate twice.) Now, have a cup of coffee. The solution should converge after approximately 1414 iterations.
