We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Don't use outflow, it's an obsolete option and really should be removed from the GUI. Pressure outlet is the correct choice. 

Best guess with the reverse flow is you got a negative in the wrong place in the Expression or UDF. If you initialise from the inlet which way do the velocity vectors point?Â
