akidess will become famous soon enough
I'm using CFX together with Ansys workbench. Everything is going nicely, except that the solver stops after one or two iterations even though the solution is not converged yet - if I rerun the case the results change and the residual decreases even further. I've been looking for a while, but I can't seem to find a setting to force the solver to run for a specified number of iterations or tighten the residual criterion. Can anyone point me where to find those settings?
