January 24, 2011, 06:19	Open Vessel simulation	#1
e101533 New Member Rhodri Jones Join Date: Jan 2011 Posts: 4 Rep Power: 15	Dear All, I am simulating a hydrocyclone submerged into an open vessel which is allowed to overflow. What is the best way to simulate this? At the moment I am setting the top of the vessel as a flow-split outlet, the results converge however I am getting a pressure lower than atmospheric at the top of the vessel which is impossible. This is leading to reverse flow problems. I have extended the outlet but this makes little difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rhodri
