Summary0003354: increasing pressure at smaller particles
DescriptionIn the case lagrangian/MPPICFoam/cyclone the pressure at inlet is increasing very much, when the particle size is set to very small values (below 10µm).
Steps To Reproduce- case: tutorials/lagrangian/MPPICFoam/cyclone with a few changing in kinematicCloudProperties
- recording of the pressure at inlet (see attached file)

It's not clear that this is a bug. It could be physical, or if not any number of aspects of the case setup could be resulting in this effect. Resolving this question would require user support.
