[Amber0922]

Dear all,

I ran a inlet simulation at 50 times back pressure, and the DDES is based on the RANS steady results. I think it will be relatively stable, but the DDES diverged quickly, while the URANS goes well. I attached my setting below, hoping someone could tell me how I could improve my case.
