Imagine an object falling into a container with calm water.
Here, RealFlow uses very large substeps to speed up the simulation.
Due to these large steps the interaction between the object and the fluid is delayed.
With “Use Geometry Velocity” the interaction will happen in time again.

Solver (B)
Here you change the default simulation settings for all Dyverso fluid types. The parameters are exactly the same for all fluid types except "Dumb". Browse through the tabs and choose an entry:
MIN substeps
Specify the minimum number of simulation steps for Dyverso PBD fluids:
- Higher values increase simulation time and can lead to instabilities with PBD fluids. We recommend moderate increases of just a few substeps.
- For a fixed number of substeps use equal values for “MIN substeps” and “MAX substeps”.
- The default value normally provides the best ratio between speed and accuracy.
...
Specify the maximum number of simulation steps for Dyverso PBD fluids:
- Higher values increase simulation time and can lead to instabilities with PDB fluids. Try using values around the default setting.
- For a fixed number of substeps use equal values for “MIN substeps” and “MAX substeps”.
- The default value normally provides the best ratio between speed and accuracy.
MIN iterations (not for "Dumb")
Specify the minimum number of simulation cycles for Dyverso PBD fluids:
- Higher values increase simulation time, but also avoid instabilities.
- For a fixed number of iterations use equal values for “MIN iterations” and “MAX iterations”.
MAX

iterations (not for "Dumb")
Specify the maximum number of simulation cycles for Dyverso PDB fluids:
- Higher values increase simulation time, but also avoid instabilities.
- For a fixed number of iterations use equal values for “MIN iterations” and “MAX iterations”.
...
Accuracy (not for "Dumb")
This parameter ranges between 0.0 and 1.0. With
- 0.0 RealFlow quickly finds a solution, but it will not be very accurate
- 1.0 RealFlow finds a solution that is very close to the exact behaviour, but simulation time will increase.

OpenCL (C)
...
Specify the minimum number of simulation steps for Dyverso SPH fluid type:
- Higher values increase simulation time, but also avoid instabilities.
- For a fixed number of substeps use equal values for “MIN substeps” and “MAX substeps”.
MAX substeps
Specify the maximum number of simulation steps for Dyverso SPH fluid type:
- Higher values increase simulation time, but also avoid instabilities.
- For a fixed number of substeps use equal values for “MIN substeps” and “MAX substeps”.
OpenCL (D)
Due to the almost infinite number of hardware combinations we cannot guarantee that RealFlow's OpenCL features are available for any computer or graphic device. Please read the → "GPU" chapter if you encounter performance issues.
