Pressure gradient normal to wall -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

October 27, 2010, 09:30	Pressure gradient normal to wall	#1
steph79 Member Join Date: Jul 2010 Posts: 37 Rep Power: 16	Hi, Can I ask does fluent prescribe the pressure gradient normal to a wall as being zero, as opposed to extrapolating the pressure from the freestream to the wall? From what I can gather dp/dn = 0 appears to be the case. If so is there a way I can work around this approximation? Thanks.
