Hi,

The paper "Accurate Three Dimensional Lid-Driven cavity flow" J.comp.Phy 206(2005) 536-558 by Albensoeder & Kuhlmann, defines in Page 543, a Convergence criteria for steady flow as :

max( u(X,t) - u(X,t-dt) ) / dt*Re < epsilon, X is a vector here. My question is : Why is Reynolds number appearing here ?

Regs, Dominic
