Hi, I am new to COMSOL and I am simulating the expansion of steam in a a condenser from a cylinder. They are connected by a pipe. The expansion is due to pressure difference. I need to run the simulation for about 1 s.
Is there any way I can block the flow of steam from the cylinder to the condenser after a certain time say about 0.5 s and then simulate just the condenser for the remaining 0.5 s?

Use if statement with expression. if(t<.5[s]) *inlet_velocity . This will keep the inlet until .5 s and after that flow will be zero.
