5. Solution
Second Order Upwind Momentum Scheme
Solution > Solution Methods > Spatial Discretization .Set Momentum to Second Order Upwind
Convergence Criterion
Solution > Monitors > Residuals > Edit... .Set the Absolute Criteria for , x-velocity and y-velocity all to 1e-6. Click ok
Solution > Monitors > Drag > Edit... .Then check Print to Console and Plot. Next, click cylinderwall, which is located underWall Zones. Lastly, click ok

Initial Guess
Solution > Solution Initialization .Set Compute From to farfield1. Alternately, you can simply set X Velocity to 1 m/s. Then,click Initialize.
Iterate Until Convergence
Solution > Run Calculation .Set the Number of Iterations to 2000. Then, click Calculate. (You may have to hitCalculate twice.) Now, have a cup of coffee. The solution should converge afterapproximately 1647 iterations.
