Hello all
I am using kOmega solver(Also KomegaSSTLM solver) and residuals gets very small, but I do not get convergence message on the screen why? What is the criteria for convergence?
Also, what is the meaning of

Code:

Number of lambda iterations exceeds maxLambdaIter(10)

which happens in some iterations? I have attached my residuals below.

Thanks,
Farzad
