Reply To: Pressure Under Sea

[Sebastian Sarabia]

Hi Nick, In the BC I have pipe velocity input and tidal current velocity input on the left, outlet pressure on the right and outlet pressure at the top, floor on the bottom.

I tried using operating pressure 2, 3, 4 bar leaving all gauge pressure at 0, then I tried leaving operating pressure at 0 and only using the gauge pressure for the pressure outputs for 2, 3, 4 bar, velocity contours all gave similar.

Should I use gauge pressure for velocity inputs?

I am looking for velocity contours for flow dispersion at different depths but there is almost no difference in the results I got.
