Hi,
What it's the recommended criteria for an airfoil simulation? It's good enough an RMS < 1e-4 or it's better a MAX < 5e-4? Reynolds max. 600e3 - AoA between -2 to 12. Thanks in advance, Andres. |

Monitor your forces and see if they are still changing to help you decide...

You should also monitor mass and momentum imbalances to make sure these are small (> 0.001 or smaller depending on how accurate you need to be).
