Because a periodic side boundary is the least constraining. It is also very simple to do (no need to specify anything) and very numerically stable.

Consider making the side walls periodic boundaries. Also be aware this simulation is almost certainly transient and 3D and if you want to model it correctly you will have to get adequate width to...

I would still recommend you consider using walls on the sides, or making the inlet include the side walls. Pressure boundaries where the flow goes tangent to the boundary are always convergence...

You cannot define both the pressure and velocity at a boundary. This is over-defining the boundary.

If the opening is perpendicular to gravity then it just has a constant pressure applied. No need...
