A summary of 'pressure-inlet' boundary conditions which are used in CFD, particularly for compressible flows and buoyancy driven / natural convection flows. The following topics are covered: 1) 6:06 When are pressure-inlets used instead of velocity-inlets? 2) 12:20 How do incompressible pressure-inlets work? 3) 15:00 How do subsonic (Mach Number less than 1) pressure-inlets work? 4) 18:56 How do supersonic (Mach Number greater than 1) pressure-inlets work 5) 21:04 What values do I need to enter for an ANSYS Fluent pressure-inlet? ================================== The following reference may be useful: 1) ANSYS Fluent User Manual Pressure Inlet Boundaries ============================================ Want to learn more? ============================================ Grab a copy of my CFD Fundamentals Course (for beginners):
