Free surface simulations frequently require transient mode to achieve convergence. This is because the surface waves have very low dissipation and are very difficult to converge. A transient...

Free surface models are very sensitive to mesh quality and work best with orthogonal mesh, that is hex meshes. The angled faces of tets cause additional dissipation and blur the interface and can...

It could be:

* transient behaviour, free surface simulations do this a lot. Many free surface simulations require transient simulation despite being steady state.
* Generated by spurious currents...

Spurious currents at the free surface is a common problem with free surface simulations. They are very hard to eliminate in a eularian approach. You can minimise them by careful adhustment of the...
