Cyclone Separator with Particle Separation: Exercise 6—Performing the Simulation
Simulation is performed with various options for steady and transient types.
* 
Monitoring points must be created before you perform the simulation.
1. In the Flow Analysis Tree, under Physics select Common.
2. In the Properties panel, Model tab, set values for the options as listed below:
Time Definition Transient
Simulation Time (Duration) — 1.5
Number of Time Steps — 750
Result Saving Frequency — 100
3. In the Run group, click Run to begin the simulation. The default settings are set to Start from Initial Values and Steady in the Run group.
4. Click XYPlot Panel to view the residuals for the steady simulation.
* 
The default convergence criterion is 0.1 for steady state simulations. The calculation continues till the simulation time is reached. For better results, run it for more simulation time.
5. Click OK when the simulation is complete.
