Y+ =0.5 is a good value, but ofcourse it also is very problem specific.The good thing about CFX automatic wall functions is, even if you are between 0.5 to 100 for SST model, it gives you good results. Because it uses low-Re number approximation or log profile approximation wherever they are needed. I hope I am not wrong when I say this.
