Velocity at inlet in natural convection

nived · May 7, 2018, 02:11

Iam modelling a natural convection problem. Inlet is given as pressure inlet and outlet as pressure outlet. But velocity is not zero at the inlet. Inlet and outlet is given at the bottom and top of the fluid domain respectively. How to get zero velocity at the inlet?

If you dont want any flow from the inlet then why you are giving any inlet ?
