Define Pressures
Use the Pressure tools to enforce pressure on the nodes of a surface
Define Stagnation Pressure
Use the Stagnation Pressure tool to enforce stagnation pressure on the nodes of a surface.
This type of condition is useful when velocity or flow rate is not known, such as in buoyancy-driven flows.
-
Select the surfaces on which to apply the boundary
condition in the following ways:
- While in the Flow ribbon, select surfaces, then right-click and select from the context menu.
- From the Flow ribbon, Pressure tool group, click the Stagnation Pressure tool.
Select surfaces.
-
In the dialog, input values for each tab.
- Momentum
- Turbulence
- TemperatureNote: This tab only becomes available if the Heat Transfer option is turned on in the Flow ribbon Physics tool.
- Setting
-
From the guide bar, execute the command in the following
ways:
- Click to confirm your selection and remain
in the tool.
This allows you to continue creating instances and helps you visualize and edit instances with the legend.
- Click to confirm your selection and exit the tool.

Define Static Pressure
Use the Static Pressure tool to enforce static pressure on the nodes of a surface.
