The user has control over a number of parameters that influence numerical convergence of the steady state solution.

Note: These values should only be changed by experienced users or under advisement by AFT Support. Poorly defined Solution Control settings can cause the model to converge on an incorrect solution without warning messages.

• Tolerance panel - The iterative tolerances that define convergence for the steady state solution can be defined on this panel.

• Iterations panel - Additional iteration controls that can affect whether or not a model converges for the steady state, or how quickly it will converge, can be defined here. Most settings on this panel will not affect the final result.
