Default Residual convergence...

Hello !

I'm simulating a supersonic 30mm shell (Mach2) in the air. The residals are converging, but no more than 5e-3...

Is it important ? can I trust this result ?

And what are exactly the residuals ? (I understand them as the difference beetween 2 cells... Am I wrong ??)

Thank you very much !!

Cyril
