Disclosed are computer implemented techniques for correcting for numerically generated pressure waves at an inlet of a simulation space. The techniques include receiving a model of a simulation space and applying an inlet pressure to an inlet of the simulation space. The applied inlet pressure generates fluctuating velocities that produce undesired, numerically-generated pressure waves. The numerically generated pressure waves are measured to establish a measured pressure history. The measured pressure history is subtracted from the applied inlet boundary pressure history to provide a set of boundary conditions. The process conducts a fluid simulation using the set of boundary conditions. The process repeats using a subsequent set of boundary conditions, until an iteration is reached where the measured pressures near the inlet are sufficiently small to compensate for undesired, numerically-generated pressure waves, and thereafter stores that subsequent set of boundary conditions to provide a corrected set of boundary conditions.
