Description

This boundary condition provides a free-stream condition for pressure. It is a zero-gradient condition that constrains the flux across the patch based on the free-stream velocity.

Usage

    Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
    U            | velocity field name     | no          | U
    phi          | flux field name         | no          | phi
    rho          | density field name      | no          | none

Example of the boundary condition specification:

<patchName>
{
        type            freestreamPressure;
}

Note

This condition is designed to operate with a freestream velocity condition
