Dear Experts,

I am so confused with mesh independency studies.

According to some I should varies the mesh densities without considering the y+ really much when doing mesh independence and after I get a stable solution (No changes in variable), I then move on the change the mesh side near the BL to capture the details.

My question is should I make 5 cases with same y+ but different mesh densities, run it and test the dependency

Or

run different mesh densities without considering y+(varies for all cases)

I was acknowledged that the mesh independence studies is numerically means that the core flow does not change?

Let say I keep on discretise it but somehow the different y+ for each cases will affect the solution for monitoring point right?

Thanks

Regards
JL
