Detailed Description

This boundary condition provides a hydrostatic pressure condition, calculated as:

\[ p_{hyd} = p_{ref} + \rho_{ref} g (x - x_{ref}) \]

where

$ p_{hyd} $ = Hydrostatic pressure [Pa]
$ p_{ref} $ = Reference pressure [Pa]
$ x_{ref} $ = Reference point in Cartesian co-ordinates
$ \rho_{ref} $ = Density (assumed uniform)
$ g $ = Acceleration due to gravity [m/s^2]
Usage
Property Description Required Default value
rhoRef Uniform density [kg/m^3] yes
pRef Reference pressure [Pa] yes
pRefPoint Reference pressure location no hRef
value Initial value no pRef

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            uniformDensityHydrostaticPressure;
        rhoRef          1000;
        pRef            1e5;
        pRefPoint       (0 0 0);
    }
