Monitoring the Solution

The plots and scenes required to view and monitor the solution are already created and only one slight change is required for this analysis.

For most unsteady cases, it is more useful to monitor the solution progress by reporting a quantity every time-step rather than every iteration. To set up the maximum wall pressure as the monitoring quantity:

Select the Monitors > Area Averaged Inlet Pressure Monitor node

In the Properties window, change the Trigger property to Time-Step

Similarly, for the vector scene:

Select the Scenes > Vector Scene 1 > Attributes > Update node

In the Properties window, change the Update Policy to Time-Step

Save the simulation

This completes the pre-processing task.
