Hi!

I'm trying to teach myself openFoam. I've been running a simple simulation using icoFoam. I want to simulate air going in at 4m/s at one end and then see the flow trough two outputs at atmospheric pressure. This should be a top view if that matters.

I've attaced a link showing my results. Can any one spot my mistake(s)? The animation looks pretty weird to me.

Please tell me if you need more information.



!PS bonus question How would I model a damper at one of the outlets?


transportProperties:

        type            zeroGradient;
    }
