Transient heat transfer modeling.
There are 3 thermoelectric coolers on the bottom of a chamber. The heat flux is a function of the temperature of the cooler (wall temperature), q=f(T), the larger the temperature is, the smaller the heat flux will be.
In other words, it's about how to create a wall heat flux function with respect to its temperature.
Can this problem be solved using UDF? If so, can anyone give me some ideas of the UDF? Many thanks!

Hi Laplace,
you can use a DEFINE_PROFILE: you call the wall temperature (maybe you need also a DEFINE_ADJUST) and write the function for the heat flux.
I suggest reading UDF Guide for info about these DEFINE UDFs.

Regards
