Floworks and Superflow test bench

Is there anyone with Floworks to analyze flow rates from different shaped pipes similar to how a Super Flow flowbench works.

I've tried a number of different conditions, and boundaries with no luck.

With the Super Flow, flow bench, the user would place the pipe on the intake of the test bench. The user would then activate the air pump which would then create a vacuum at the intake drawing air through the test pipe. The flow bench would then read the differential pressure across the test pipe and convert that to a volumetric flow rate.

If tried some different boundary conditions (static pressure in and out, where the inlet would be 4 psi less than the outlet) and there are no options to measure volumetric flow rate.

Any ideas?
