CPU Booster residuals oscillating

cfd enthusiast
cfd enthusiast 9 months ago

Hello Everyone,

I am simulating using the Open solver. When i start a simulation using the results of another simulation that is close to the solution I get really high residulas that also oscillate like this: 

when I use the cpu booster on my grid the residulas oscillate violently like this: (I am using 3 grid levels with  CGI)

when i turn the CPU Booster off:

I don't understand why the residuals behave the way they do here.

My simulations are successful but the convergence isn't reached. The Physical solutions are not too off from reality, however I am worried that my simulation isn't trustworthy because of the reasons above.

What could be the causes that effect?

Thank you!

    The CPU booster will increase the CFL number and the large oscillations. It is advisable to run with a lower CFL number in order to reduce oscillations.
