Utility Menu > Select > Entities ... Select “Nodes” and “By Location”
Select “Y coordinates”
Set Min,Max to 1, then [OK]
Or issue: NSEL,S,LOC,Y,1
(b) Define a UY DOF couple set on the select set of nodes:
Main Menu > Preprocessor > Coupling / Ceqn > Couple DOFs +
[Pick All]
NSET = 1
Set Lab = UY, then [OK].
Utility Menu > Select > Everything
Or issue: CP,1,UY,ALL ALLSEL,ALL

11. Apply internal constant pressure to line:
Main Menu > Preprocessor > Loads > -Loads- Apply > Pressure >
On Lines + Pick lines 9 and 13, then [OK]
VALUE = 1000, then [OK]
Or issue: SFL,9,PRES,1000
SFL,13,PRES,1000
