Assign Pressure and mass flow rate at inlet in Fluent

      Hi,

      I was trying to assign the pressure and the mass flow rate at inlet for my case in Fluent, but after some research, I've found that u can't do that because it's mathematically over specifying.


      But someone suggest that i can use UDF to override this part, can this method work? and where exactly i just use it, in mass flow rate condition or in pressure-inlet condition?

      Hi,


      You can't do both unfortunately as it is mathematically obsolete. Your inlet boundary condition has to include one of 2 options and only 1:


      -Inlet Pressure


      or


      -Velocity or mass Flow


      At the outlet, on the other hand, you can specify an outlet pressure.


      Regards
