waveTransmissive: does fieldInf fix static or total pressure?
 
Hi all,

I use waveTransmissive BC for pressure, here is a snippet of my 0/p file:

Code:

inlet
{
    type            waveTransmissive;
    gamma          1.67; // helium
    fieldInf        1.01325e+06; // 10 bars
    lInf            0.01;
    value          uniform 1.01325+06;
}



I need to know if the fieldInf value prescribes static or total pressure. I think it's static one, but I'd like to be sure.

Thanks!
