Dear sir or madam,


I have a problem about the unit of volume flow. I know the standard liters per minute (slm) is
widely used in industry. So do we use this unit in comsol?

For example, if I give 20 [L/min] in 200 centidegrees, is 20 the value under standard condition
or current condition ?

Thank you very much.

There are several options in COMSOL for selecting an inlet volume flow rate boundary condition. You can input a volume flow rate measured at standard temperature and pressure (or under other non-standard values if you play around with the settings). To access these options set Boundary Condition type of the inlet boundary condition to Mass Flow and you will find a lot of settings.
