Comparison between the simulated and the desired flow rate (Q) ratios as \(\gamma _R\) varies for a fixed \(\gamma _{RC}/\gamma _R\). The results are obtained from the simulations on the fine grid of the five-outlets domain using \(\gamma _{RC}/\gamma _R = 1\). With the outlet 4 arbitrarily chosen as a reference, the Q ratios of the other four outlets are obtained for each \(\gamma _R\). We observe that the percentage error of the Q ratios decreases exponentially as \(\gamma _R\) increases.
