Why only changing the range of output times affects the results?

I am doing a thermo-hydraulic simulation. I only change the output times from range(0,1,480) to range(0,1,600), but the result at TIME=120 differs in the two calculations. I want to know the reason. It doesn't seem to make any sense.

The reason for this is that by default the initial timestep taken by the solver is dependent on the final time. This has been discussed a few times in the Discussion Forum, see e.g. this thread. Please refer to this Knowledge Base entry for a more detailed explanation and guidelines on how to proceed.

Best,

Jeff
