Then, click the Initialize button, . This completes the initialization process.
Alternately, you could set the Gauge Pressure to 0 and set the X Velocity to 1 m/s as shown below.
Then, you would need to press the Initialize button to apply the specified initial values to all the cells. Either method will give you the same results.
