Thank you. I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but I do have some idea. I'm also monitoring total pressure at the inlet and top outlet to see whether they are able to converge. This seems to be happening. I understand that the flow in the cyclone is implicitly unsteady. But still, the continuity residuals should be able to go at least under 1e-3, right? 

To add on the previous post, this is my contour of the tangential velocity:

 

Thank you for the tip regarding radial pressure distribution.
