The Free Surface analysis in SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation lets you analyze how a flow of fluid fills a container. In this example, Sam opens a valve and Flow Simulation lets us review the filling process in detail to review stresses on the container, fill time, and more.
Free surface is an excellent tool for other purposes as well:
Modeling boundary layer development
Modeling immiscible fluids
Determine fill time
