Hi.

I have a chamber with multiple inlets. First inlet is
towards z-direction and I would like to specify inlet
velocity and pressure.

The second inlet is perpendicular to z-axis (x-direction),
where it curves towards z-direction.

Can OpenFoam handle multiple inlets?
I'm trying to set my dictionary similar to the following:


boundaryField
{
...
inlet0
{
<blockquote>type pressureInletVelocity;
</blockquote>
<blockquote>value uniform (0 0 1);
</blockquote>
}
inlet1
{
<blockquote>type pressureInletVelocity;
</blockquote>
<blockquote>value uniform (-0.5 0 0);
</blockquote>
}
...
}


This is not working.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

yes, this is an old thread - but for anyone coming across this:

Multiple inlets are part of some tutorials. See for example:
$FOAM_TUTORIALS/lagrangian/MPPICFoam/injectionChannel (at least present in OpenFOAMv2212)

So yes: openFOAM can handle multiple inlets with different settings.
