hydrostatic pressure
 
HI
imagine a cubic with dimensions 10*10*10. if this cubic is filled with water, how can create hydrostatic pressure of water in the cubic which is 0 in the top of and 99820 (998.2*10*10) in the bottom of the cubic?

I would be grateful if you could help me

Enable gravity and set operating density to 0.

I have done that before and considered all boundaries wall, but the vale of hydrostatic contour pressure are much less than the expected values!

Mention the units that you are using. Is your cube 10 m by 10 m by 10 m? Is the pressure in pascal?

yes the dimensions are in meter and pressure is in Pascal
