Hi,

I am an extreme beginner to OpenFOAM.
I am having confusion on what exactly in specifications of a solution and what fixedFluxPressure, totalPressure, and uniform means. Can anyone explain?

FoamFile
{
version 2.0;
format ascii;
class volScalarField;
object p_rgh;
}

dimensions [1 -1 -2 0 0 0 0];

internalField uniform 0;

boundaryField
{
leftWall
{
type fixedFluxPressure;
value uniform 0;
}

rightWall
{
type fixedFluxPressure;
value uniform 0;
}

lowerWall
{
type fixedFluxPressure;
value uniform 0;
}

atmosphere
{
type totalPressure;
p0 uniform 0;
}

defaultFaces

}
}

Hi Robert,

I suggest that you have a look at the material of the training course: "Learning how to use free surface flows in OpenFOAM 3.0"
The couse material can be found in the following link:
http://openfoam-extend.sourceforge.n...s/courses.html

Best Regards,
Paulo
