Description
Creates an initial flow velocity constraint for a fluid flow analysis.
Usage
- Either press the toolbar button FEM ConstraintInitialFlowVelocity or select the menu Model → Fluid Constraints → Constraint initial flow velocity.
- Enter an initial flow velocity value for the analysis. The value is entered as a combination of the 3 main cartesian vectors components (X,Y,Z).
- For a 3D analysis, select a 'solid' (body) from your model, for a 2D analysis select a face.
Notes
In simple analyses, it is not necessary to specify the initial flow velocity, however it is recommended as best practice.
