Ali, thank you very much for the link. It is a very nice and detailed treatment of supersonic flows in a pipe.

So far, I used "no slip" walls for my pipe in Fluent. Now if I set "zero shear...

Dear Ali,

many thanks for your suggestions...

Set ambient to zero, do FMG initialization, run. Increment inlet mass flux, run again.

Trying to achieve supersonic flow in a pipe

Hello

I am trying to create supersonic flow in a pipe. I have mass-flow-inlet and pressure outlet at exit. Pressure outlet setting should be ignored by the solver and extrapolated from the...
