    9696In case of these non-cyclic lateral boundaries, a Dirichlet condition
    9797is used at the inflow for all quantities (initial vertical profiles -
    9898see <a href="#initializing_actions">initializing_actions</a>
    9999- are fixed during the run) except u, to which a Neumann (zero
    100 gradient) condition is applied. At the outflow, a Neumann (zero
    101 gradient) condition is used for all quantities except v, which is set
    102 to its horizontal average along the outflow (e.g. v(k,:,nx+1) =
    103 average_along_y( v(k,:,nx)), and except w, which is set to zero
    104 (Dirichlet condition). These conditions ensure the velocity field to be
    105 free of divergence at the inflow and at the outflow. For perturbation
     100gradient) condition is applied. At the outflow, a radiation condition is used for all velocity components, while a Neumann (zero
     101gradient) condition is used for the scalars. For perturbation
    106102pressure Neumann (zero gradient) conditions are assumed both at the
    107103inflow and at the outflow.<br> <br>
