Default Differences between steady and transient simulations

Hi,

I'm simulating a cylinder in a rectangular tank and I would like to know what represents the steady solution.

At high Reynolds numbers in the transient simulation a von Kármán vortex street is formed, so at sucessive time steps vortex tavel and dissipate.

But in the steady simulation, does the solution represents a time average calculation? or what exactly represents?

Thanks in advance
