Hi, this is the first time I am posting on this forum and I hope I am not breaking any rules.
I am a beginner and I followed the tutorials of star ccm to anlalyse the ship resistance of my own model.
I have a mesh with 900000 cells and the physical conditions are set as in the tutorial.
The residuals that I get are oscilating and the drag force resulting from the pressure are decreasing over time and not converging. The viscuos forces are fairly steady.
I already checked if the mass flow is the same at the inlet and outlet.
Images from results are in the attachments
