Velocity profile not fully developed in laminar flow

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I am trying to simulate a laminar flow inside a simple pipe to get familiar with the CFD module. However, I cannot get a fully developed velocity profile.

I have been trying with different inlet velocities now, apparently if I use as input the velocity that I need (0,123 m/s) the velocity profile does not fully develop. But if I use a lower value, say 0,0175 m/s, it does develop completly
