boundary condition : temperature
 

Here's a boudary through which the fluid leaves from a fluid domain. I know the velocity on the boundary from measurement but the temperature is unknown. I want the temperature on the boundary to be the extrapolation of the internal temperature field. Simply, I want the temperature on the boundary face to be the same as that of the adjacent cell. Unfortunately, I can't find proper boundary condition out of the given ones in Fluent 5. Anybody have an idea or experience? Your kind advice will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Re: boundary condition : temperature
 

Dear J. D. Yoon

Your boundary is 'a boudary through which the fluid leaves from a fluid domain'. Then as far as I understand your question, your boundary face is 'OUTFLOW' or 'PRESSURE OUTLET'.

If so, velocity and temperature at that face are calculated by your code, not given by you.
