Implicit time-stepping -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

Sara Guest Posts: n/a	Hello, I wonder what the physical meaning is of using large time-steps in a simulation. I.e. using time-steps that violates the courant number. I understand that the transients of the flow can not be described correctly in such a simulation but is it possible to draw any form of conclusion from a flow field before it has reached some sort of steady state in such a case?
