Time-dependent heat sources in a steady simulation #167

Description

Hi,

I am trying to ramp up the power of heat sources during a steady simulation using the attached udf-source-terms file. In 476 iterations, the simulation has reached 1.65e-6 sec of pseudo time, which I computed from the diagnostics file as a cumulative sum of dt at each iteration.

Based on the plot of residuals, it appears that the power stays at its maximum from the very first iteration. What could be the reason?

In steady simulation, is "t" in the sourceTerms function a pseudo-time computed as a cumulative sum of dt at each iteration?
