Thanks for the reply Stefan. If I do not input any value in the part of
domain 2 that is not covered by domain 1, what will be the default value
of the flow variables? Would the values be assigned randomly?

P.S. As of now I am not much concerned with the initial condition. I 
just need
a fully developed solution at a given Re. I am doing this exercise to 
quickly reach
a fully developed state on the bigger domain.

Many thanks,
N.
