screech1987 is on a distinguished road
A quick query about the 'ramping' of values in StarCCM+.
As I am running a highly hypersonic case the starting Courant number had to be small, but I have put a rampping function in to gradually increase the value over a number of iterations.
The set up in Star is straight forwards with a start and end iteration, and a initial Courant number defined. But what I could not gather from the UG was a what value does the Courant number reach or plateau out at, or is this just dependednt on the solution and applies the maximum value it can?

Cheers,
Martin
