Hello,

I've found a strange behavior when looking into a bug for the pressure
convergence of a simple Navier-Stokes problem using PetscFE.

I followed many examples for labeling boundary faces. I first use
DMPlexMarkBoundaryFaces, (label=1 to the faces).
I find those faces using DMGetStratumIS and searching 1 as it is the value
of the marked boundary faces.
Finally i use DMPlexLabelComplete over the new label.
I then use :
  ierr = PetscDSAddBoundary(prob, DM_BC_ESSENTIAL, "in", "Faces", 0, Ncomp,
components, (void (*)(void)) uIn, NWest, west, NULL);CHKERRQ(ierr);
in order to impose a dirichlet condition for the faces labeled by the
correct value (west=1, south=3,...).

However, the function "uIn()" is called in all the Elements containing the
boundary faces, and thus impose the values at nodes that are not in the
labeled faces.
Is it a normal behavior ? I then have to test the position of the node
calling uIn, in order to impose the good value.
I have this problem for a Poiseuille flow, where at 2 corner Elements i
have a zero velocity dirichlet condition (wall) and a In flow velocity one.

The pressure is then very high at the corner nodes of those 2 Elements.
Do you think my pressure problem comes from there ? (The velocity field is
correct)

Many thanks,

Regards,

Yann
