Hi all,


While using buoyantSimpleFoam in an backwards u like shape i am getting a strange pressure field and no outflow. I guess it must be becouse of the boundary conditions...



the boundary conditions are:
__________U ________P_________ ____p_rgh _________T

Inlet ______fV______ ___calculated ___fFPresuure_____ fV
__________uni(-0.8 0 0) _____________gradient 0 _____uni 343.15
_________________________________value uni 1e5

walls _______no slip _____calculated ___fFPresure _______zG
__________________________________gradient 0
_________________________________value uni 1e5

0utlet ______inletOutlet__ _calculated____ fixedValue_____ inletOutlet
________inletValue uni (0 0 0)_ _________uniform 1e5_____iV uni 343.15
__________value uni (0 0 0) __________________________v uni 343.15



Im greatfull for any help.

Hello David,

Could you please clarify what you are asking?

Are you asking why the high pressure is occurring, or what boundary condition is causing this?

Hi Kira,

I am asking both, and most of all, how to fix it.
Thanks,

David

Hi,

I found a solution, in witchthe flow was perfect eventaugh ithink there would be a nicer solution. I put the gravity to 0.
