Steady Turbulent flow
 

HI I am modeling a reservoir intake .I have to study the flow behaviour in intake.I have to do turbulent modeling with steady state till now..I am doubtful about my approach. Can I proceed with this or I must adopt the unsteady turbulent approach.Please respond with your valuable suggestions. Thanks in advance

Try to run your calculation with steady state solver. If the residuals don't converge and oscillate, then switch on unsteady solver, with the appropriate time step
