This tutorial is testing thermal phase-change module in ansys, although the details are not clear. I believe the inlet is defined as &#8220;mass-flow inlet&#8221; but how about the output? I made it &#8220;outflow&#8221; since I do not know the BC at the outlet but it diverges and always I see &#8220;reversed&nbsp;backflow in 60 faces on outflow&#8221; while solving. Also to what value should I set the gauge pressure at the inlet. the operating pressure is shown to be 108 bar in the tutorial, so should I set the gauge pressure at the inlet to 108-101=7bars? sorry my background basically in electrical engineering and also I am new to ansys&nbsp;so I have some difficulties.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Thanks&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-31588","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["3760"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":[null],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0","0","0","0","0"],"_btv_view_count":["4579"],"_bbp_subscription":["237855"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["31588"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["25","22555","154844","160392"],"_bbp_voice_count":["4"],"_bbp_reply_count":["47"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["70424"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["70424"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2018-11-26 05:55:19"]},"test":"mossaied2"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/31588","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/31588\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31588"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
