Default Residuals

hi Friends

I am trying to use mass residual as a criterion for grid sensitivity analysis. Unfortunately when I double the number of cells of my simulation I get higher mass residual, I expected to get lower mass residual. Is that means that the simulation with smaller number of cells are more accuarte than that of higher number of cells? Is there any one who can expalin this?

regards

mohaba
