9.1 Water suction

9.1.1 Prerequisites

• TransAT

• TransATUI

• Advanced Initial Conditions

• Paraview (or Tecplot)

9.1.2 Introduction

In this TransAT tutorial suction of water from a reservoir is simulated. The setup is shown in
Figure 9.1 where water at the bottom of the reservoir is sucked out by two pumps.

This tutorial introduces two TransAT features:

• Pump boundary condition
• User-defined functions

Pump boundary conditions are used to suck out water and a user-defined function is used to
compute the mass of water in the domain over time. Please note: this tutorial makes
use of Advanced Initial Conditions. The dependencies for Advanced Initial Conditions must
be installed. Please refer to the Advanced Initial Conditions Dependencies Tool section in the
TransAT Installation Manual
