We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello Arnaud,

If DT=0 on *ICFD_CONTROL_TIME, then the CFL timestep calculated by the ICFD solver is used:

 

You could try to use a larger DT by specifying the timestep you want to use (DT=5e-6 for example) and see if the results are still good. 

Also, you could try to increase your mesh size a little bit.

Finally, it is recommended to use MPP LS-DYNA to run in parallel on many cores. 

 

Reno.
