Hello everyone,

I'm simulating flow past a circular cylinder. Not very difficult.
I'm using the k-omega sst model and the quick scheme for all equations (I found this in an article). Re is about 7200.

I did three meshes of 12000, 32000 and 90000 elements.
I cannot achieve the convergence using the quick scheme for the momentum equation. I already tried modifying the under-relaxation factors.

Could you tell me how can I reach convergence using quick scheme for momentum equation?
