Default MAxium residual...confusion with expert parameter

I want to know the location of higher residuals in my domain. The manual (modeling guide v11 page 394) talks about some expert parameter 'output eq residuals' which I am not able to see in the chapter 'Expert Control Parameter' from the same manual.

1) Is this expert parameter available ? What will it do ? (will it write location of max residual to .res file?)

2) I see another expert parameter 'monitor residual' ? Does it write residual and location to *.out file or *.res file?

Thanks, KK

The location of maximum residual for each equation is printed anyway at the end of output file.

Hi Harshad, Thanks for your reply. I wanted to know

1) Can I know the location of maximum residuals WHILE the simulation is running? If yes, how?

2) The location that you talked about, just tells about ONE location of maximum residuals. I wanted to know if some how I can create volumes in CFX-Post [Location-> Volume (type -isovolume)] to see the regions of higher residuals (To decide if they are in my region of interest). For that I want to know how to right residuals in result file.

And it would be really great if you can clarify the two expert parameters I mentioned in my first post in this thread.

Thanks again, KK

On the output control form, select 'Output Equation Residuals'. Or set the expert parameter 'output eq residuals=t'. Both work.
