Why are my sims coming out boxy?

[lukepenry]

when the steps are high and the fluid viscous the sim appears to take the shape of the grid in a box shape. my geo is spherical. Can anyone explain this and give me a way to stop this happening? Houdini Flip seems fine so not sure why Phoenix works different.

Thanks!

Hmmm, sometimes Surface Tension does that, do you have it On?

Hey,

Yes i do have it on.set to 0.6

[lukepenry]

any thoughts how to avoid this without turning off surface tnesion?

Hey,

Which Phoenix version do you use? I've been fixing problems like that before, so maybe this is already fixed in the latest Phoenix. And if not, if possible, please send the scene over so I can see if it can be fixed in the code and find a workaround for you in the meantime.

Cheers!
