Additional information
This model is the didactic CFD model of a valve. After setting the clearance of the valve, the mass flow and the fluid's viscosity, click on "Run". The incompressible solver "simpleFoam" of OpenFOAM is then called to compute the steady state flow in the system.
Cd to the models' directory in a terminal and issue gmsh valve.py at the prompt, or open valve.py from the "File" menu of Gmsh.
