Hi guys,
At the inlet of the turbine, I want to specify head and discharge (mass flow rate) in CFX; is there a way to do this? |

simultaneous setting of mass flow and pressure (head) at the inlet makes your simulation over constrained. unless you set pressure (head) at the inlet an mass flow as the outlet boundary condition. If so, you will have no control on outlet static pressure level.
