Hello everyone,

I am using an inlet velocity magnitude of 5.85 m/s.

I want to do this by udf because I use this value also in different functions.
The result is very similar compared to input by GUI, but not exactly. Also the convergence occur 1 step later.

Is my UDF wrong or what is the case here?


The UDF is:

DEFINE_PROFILE(inlet_velocity, thread, position)
{
face_t f;
begin_f_loop(f,thread)
{
F_PROFILE(f, thread, position) = 5.85;
}
end_f_loop(f, thread)
}


I hook it by GUI next to the field "velocity magnitude".

Best regards
h0rst
