How/where can I specify the ambient pressure/atmospheric pressure (101325 Pa) in the damBreak tutorial. The controlDict located in OpenFOAM-ver/etc/ has some dimensional constants like Pstd, Tstd etc. Are these used somewhere when I use atmosphere B.C. Any insight will be helpful and highly appreciated. BR Maximus
