Thank you very much, this was very helpful! I intially thought this was an issue with the reporting of total pressure. However, using the expressions, I now believe the issue is with the reporting of static pressure from resports>surface-integrals>area-wt-avg (& mass-wt-avg). This only occurs at the interior faces surrounding a fixed-value fluid volume not at the doimain BCs. I believe a 2x factor is applied to the static pressure. Below is a snipit of a spreadsheet that illustrates my point. Please let me know if this is an issue or if there is a reason for this and its justification.
