Hi all,

In my Fluent simulation, I am getting more pressure values at the outlet compared to inlet. This unrealistic one.

What does it mean?
Also, what makes pressure unrealistic?

If anybody has any idea to produce some realistic results I would be extremely grateful .

With regards,
Dhayananth

If you have a greater number of mesh elements on your outlet boundary than your inlet boundary, then you will always have more pressure values at the outlet compared to the inlet...
