Yes i believe that should be the case.. however, you could compare your test situation with another by increasing the outlet diameter and see the physical changes in the system. It would always be...

theoretically yes as volumetric flow is directly additive (per my humble understanding)... this is something you could always check i guess.. not sure how fluent defines symmetry bc option.. it may...

The simulation is ultimately what one intends to yield out of it so you would have to set goals & parameters to make sure you're heading in the right direction..
What is the percentage error this...

Not sure about closing the inlet or outlet.. that is probably related to the flow parameters.. would probably need more details to comprehend that... However, yes all of this is because it's a steady...

Good to know.. you could further try and enhance this by face-meshing the outlet circular faces and curved surfaces separately..
Up to best of my knowledge, inflation layers are usually for the...

it seems much better now, would be fairly realistic to see more convergent & symmetrical results.. Not sure about any tool to check symmetry.. running it to evaluate the difference would be something...

Yes sure it would always enhance the near outlet result if you may need them to be.. but i guess the initial step would be to have a symmetric mesh and run to ascertain symmetrical results......

By the way when you say it keeps changing the results on every increment of mesh elements, it means you haven't at all reached the grid independence and problem lies in your mesh.. if further...

Not sure about the order of asymmetry or the error magnitude but the mesh does seem pretty random... so can you mention a rough error %age you are encountering? I am assuming all outlets have...

Roughly speaking by the look of your sketch & parameters, probably one of the only reasons for non-symmetrical results could be the mesh..however I am assuming that your mesh is structured and...
