  I want to know the pressure loss in the pipe flow.
  I think that the pressure loss in the pipe flow will be the total pressure at the pipe inlet minus the total pressure at the pipe outlet.
  
  ●question 1
  Is "Pressure" handled in Discovery Live the total pressure or the static pressure?
  
  ●Question 2
  Is it possible to check "total pressure" or "dynamic pressure" when "Pressure" handled in Discovery Live is static pressure?
  
  I expect to receive answers.
  Thank you.

    Discovery Live uses static pressure or gauge pressure. You cannot check absolute pressure as it has not been defined in the simulation.

    BBueno_ANSYS , Thank you for your response.
    
    Pressure loss is very important in flow in pipes. So I expect Discovery Live to be able to see pressure loss.
