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?

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:
