For my question, I want to add a function with time and circumferential position as the variables for the inlet boundary condition. The study object is a circular ring and the inlet radius is R2 while the outlet one is R3. The inlet condition should be V2=V_mean+sin(Omega*t+phi), in which the Omega is the angular velocity and a constant in this expression. V_mean and phi (initial position) are also constants, t is the time for unsteady calculation. Can such kind of boundary condition be given? For fluent, this is very easy through using the UDF. Thanks all.
