Transient boundary conditions in CFX
 
I have time dependant mass flow rate and rotational speed of impeller. I am interested to apply them as boundary conditions for my transient CFX simulation.

Time - Rotational Speed - Mass flow rate

Making expressions for domain rotational speed and mass flow rate seems not a good idea. Can you please help me out in developing these boundary conditions ??

Making expression is the way to do it. You enter your values into a 1D interpolation function manually or read them from a file. If the values came from an equation, just use the equation.
