Base Model Simulation Exercise 5—Performing the Simulation
A Steady State Simulation is performed for the base model of the nozzle.
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:
◦ Number of Iterations—500
◦ Time Definition—Steady State Simulation
◦ Result Saving Frequency—500
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.

 | The default convergence criterion is 0.001 for steady state simulations. The simulation is completed when the residuals for all the variables drop by 3 orders or the maximum Number of Iterations is reached. |
