If your flow is circling back on an outlet, move the lid further away using a "dummy" extension pipe.

Boundary conditions tell the software what is happening at the openings of your model. Best for constant flow rates. Mass Flow: Best for compressible gases. solidworks flow simulation 2012 tutorial.pdf

Tip: Check "Exclude cavities without flow" to save solve time. If your flow is circling back on an

Goals tell SOLIDWORKS what data you actually care about. Without goals, the solver doesn't know when to stop "iterating." etc.) from the Engineering Database.

Pick your fluid (Air, Water, Steam, etc.) from the Engineering Database.
