Using Report values as boundary values

koecher · March 26, 2021, 09:59

Hi everyone,

i have to set up a simulation with pressure outlets. The mass flow through these outlets is varying and unknown quantitatively. During the calculation, a report records the mass flow. The scalar value of the mass flow should serve as a value for a mass flow inlet at another position (but same fluid region) simultaneously during the calculation. Do any of you see an easier way to use the Mass flow report for a boundary condition other than via a user-coded boundary?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Just use that Report as a boundary condition?
