Hi all,
I have been simulating a air flow around a 2D curved roof building in CFX. When plotting values of wall shear or yplus along the roof I obtain saw-like steps. I have tried different mesh resolutions (yplus<50, <1000), turbulence models (KE, SST), schemes (upwind, high resolution), but those steps or waves remain. I ran it steady and transient using different time steps but without any improvement.
Can someone give me some hint I should focus on, please?
Thank you. J.
