Hey, everyone I am currently dealing with a case where I have been provided with only the volumetric flow rate through an inlet.(no velocity or area description).
I want to use this as BC for the inlet in SU2 but there is no volumetric flow BC in SU2. I checked and there is only mass flow case where I need the velocity at the inlet. I know the density is there any way I can provide this boundary condition without further information. Thanks in advance. |

No, you need the surface area to compute the velocity. You'll need to compute the surface area from the geometry information
