Hello i'm trying to WRITE a parabollic velocity inlet as described on the following picture

i have read but my GUI seems to be different

Hello,

Can't see the linked image. I don't see where is the difficulty here. Did you try setting the formula you need ? Also check the rabbit showing available variables.

Best regards,

Thanks for the help

In the post user law was based on (sic)analytic functions vx(x,y,z), vy(x,y,z) and vz(x,y,z) (in Cartesian coordinates)".
in my case it 'd be vx=35,693*y*(0,41-y), vy=0 and vz=0.

However in my GUI the user law is defined as So i wondering if does work?

Hello,

In the GUI, you also have a second option for the flow direction: either normal to the inlet, a given vector direction, or a second user function. So you can combine the direction and norm definitions to get the desired velocity profile.
