The steady state simulation is done and obtained an residual plot. Residuals values are below 10^-6 but after that varying. Do I have to perform transient simulation or can I modify some parameters to decrease those variations here only?

Check your solution tolerance in fvSolution. You'll find something like this:
Code:
p_rgh { solver GAMG; smoother GaussSeidel; tolerance 1e-06; relTol 0.05; } Which means either solving down to a tolerance of 1e-6 or reducing it to 0.05 of the previous value. Hence once you reach the tolerance values below it are by chance a bit below 1e-6 or quite a lot. You could reduce this tolerance further if needed. This wiggling will occur however once you reach the solution threshold. |
