to identify "pressure inlet" in continua

November 6, 2008, 16:06

In the entrance of a rectangular duct carrying low velocity air at 25 C, I tried to identify "pressure inlet" condition under Regions menu. There is no such an option in drop-down menu. Isn't it possible for Star CCM+? Sorry I am a rookie!

No, there isn't a pressure option for inlet boundary, you're right. Pressure boundary is suggested only for outlet boundary in CCM+, I think it's better to use Stagnation boundary or Mass flow if you know it.
