Question

I am working on using the Navier-stokesFV action module for wave movement using a variable velocity. However I am unable to get the momentum_inlet_type and momentum_inlet_funtion to match sizes. my exact error is
"(Modules/NavierStokesFV/momentum_inlet_function): Size (1) is not the same as the number of fixed-velocity and fixed-pressure entries in momentum_inlet_types (size 0)" I have set the type to be flux-velocity however it still says im using fixed velocity and pressure is the error?

Hello

The flux-velocity inlet type is not a fixed velocity BC. You specify it with another parameter giving the fluxes instead

Are you trying to specify a fixed (varying in time) velocity? If so change the inlet type

Hi!

Thank you for your reply, I am trying to make a fixed velocity that is dependent on time. I assumed that a fixed velocity had to be non-changing.

thank you
