Hello! I'm a newby in Fluent and have a question:
I want to model a countercurrent-flow tube heat exchanger.

The flow through the tubes has an initial pressure of 250000 Pascal (temperature 40 degrees) - velocity inlet.
The flow around the tubes has an initial pressure of 450000 Pascal (temperature 15 degrees) - velocity inlet.
I have two corresponding pressure outlets. I want to simulate the flow and the temperature gradient (energy equation and viscous flow are activated). I'm using a pressure-based solver in the steady case.



So, where can I set the initial pressure? In the inlets are only supersonic pressure and in the outlets backflow pressure given...


Thank you!
