Description🔗

The pressureInletUniformVelocity is a velocity boundary condition that calculates uniform inflow velocity by averaging the flux over the patch, and then applying it in the direction normal to the patch faces.

Usage🔗

The condition requires entries in both the boundary and field files.

Boundary file🔗

<patchName>
{
    type            patch;
    ...
}

Field file🔗

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type                pressureInletUniformVelocity;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}
