Hi Andrei,

The low value of water condensate indicates that the condensation is not significant. This is a possible scenario.

Rate of condensation depend on,

  1. The amount of moisture in the flow. In case if the amount is less then there will be less condensation.
  2. The phase change parameter used in the simulation. Increasing this parameter will generate more condensation effect.

Hope this helps.
