I'm trying to study the flow inside a vacuum chamber with flowrks, and so far I had some success if I work at atmospheric pressure.
My problem is the setting of the boundary conditions!
I have 2 gas "volume inlets", and an outlet which I usually set as "static pressure outlet". This way I get an acceptable result. But since I want to work in vaccum, I need no set the outlet as a "volume outlet" with a certain value. When I do this, the program says that it's necessary to have a "pressure" boundary condition for the simulation to run, but I don't know how I can set this one...
I believe that if I set the internal wall of the chamber as a "pressure" condition, I might be able to solve this problem, but I don't know if it is a "total pressure" or a "statit pressure". Another thing is that this setting requires me to enter a value for the pressure boundary, but it's easy to see that the pressure won't be constant, which poses another doubt...
Can anyone help me with this?
