Why does my uniform gauge pressure outlet have higher pressure at the edges?

  My pressure outlet should have a uniform 0 pressure at all locations at the outlet. However, at the edges its pressure spikes at the mesh position closest to the walls. This makes the data unacceptable to my boss and unpresentable. What setting permits me to ensure that the outlet pressure is 0 at every point, even at the edges?

  However, can you replot with node values off and see how that looks? You may be picking up the wall pressure too as the facet at the edge of the outlet shares the cell with the wall.
