My boundary conditions are at the inlet velocity (0 0 0.1) and at the outlet pressure 0. I start simulation with simpleFoam and the result is that the pressure at the outlet is higher than at the inlet. Nevetheless the flow streams from the inlet to the outlet. I tried the simulation with OF 1.4 and OF 1.4.1. What is wrong ? And please do not write, that's an easy test case :-), it is not :-() Thanks for any advice.
