Dear all,

I am simulating thermal stratification in pipe.
The problem is while the residual below 1e-5, the simulation result doesn’t match experiment result well. But if I enlarge the residual of the energy equation(for example 1e-4), I can get a similar result with experiment.
Is anyone encounter the same situation with me. The problem is?

Thanks in advance!
