Problem Specification
1. Create Geometry in GAMBIT
2. Mesh Geometry in GAMBIT
3. Specify Boundary Types in GAMBIT
4. Set Up Problem in FLUENT
5. Solve!
6. Analyze Results
7. Refine Mesh

Step 5: Solve!

Set the solution controls

Main Menu > Solve > Controls > Solution...
Select PISO from the Pressure-Velocity Coupling drop-down list.

PISO allows the use of higher time step size without affecting the stability of the solution. Hence it is recommended pressure-velocity coupling for solving transient applications.

 
Uncheck Skewnes-Neighbor Coupling.
