Default reference pressure

Hello all.

FLUENT uses the absolute pressure in the calculations, that is, a gage pressure is entered in the boundary condition definition and this is added to the reference pressure. We get

Pabs = Pref + Pgage where Pgage is what you set at the boundary.

Now, can the reference pressure be set to zero for the segregated implicite solver or the coupled implicite solver?

Thanks,

Martin
