Hi,

Is it possible to view in CFD-Post where the maximum residual (as plotted by the CFD-solver during a simulation) is in a fluid domain? I've tried Isosurface, Contours, Function calculator but cannot find where to get the max residual locations.

If I can where it is occuring then I can improve the mesh in that area to improve the RMS residuals and convergence - even though I'm getting a constant residual and monitor point values the RMS residual valve needs to go down by another order of magnitude.

Thanks
