Relaxation Factors

In RWIND 3, it is possible to control the relaxation factors for the OpenFOAM® calculation. They are closely related to the stability and convergence of the calculation. For more information on the relaxation factors, see Chapter Advanced .

Tip

An optimum choice for the relaxation factor is the one that is small enough to ensure a stable computation, but large enough to move the iterative process forward quickly.
