duri is on a distinguished road
I am trying out fluent's MRF tutorial in MRFSimpleFoam. For inlet BC I used total pressure bc where i could preserve my inlet total pressure. While running it shown some error that volScalarField rho not found. So, i removed rho and psi field from total pressure BC.
Now solver is starting the iteration but pressure and velocity became completely unbounded.

My BC's are,

inlet : total pressure fixed to 200
velocity zeroGradient

outlet : pressure fixedValue to 0
velocity zeroGradient

Please help me in setting up inlet bc.
One more doubt, do i need to include surface names that rotate along with rotating zone in nonrotatingpatch () in MRFZone file.

Thanks

Hi,

did you find answer for your problem? I want to use the same boundary conditions like you, was it stable?

Thanks
