Temperature Jump boundary condition in openFOAM

hoseinhd · January 18, 2016, 08:23

Dear Foamers,

I'm new to openFoam and my problem is fluid flow in a microchannel.

I'm using buoyantBuossineqSimpleFoam.

Bottom wall is heating with a constant heat flux.

I want to implement a temperature jump on this wall.

How can I implement temperature jump? groovyBCJump? fixedJump boundary condition in openfoam?

Please somebody tell me how should I solve this problem? Have anybody written something like that?

Thanks in advance

You can probably use a fixedGradient boundary condition. If you know your temperature conductivity k you can calculate the gradient as grad(T) = q/k.

Thanks chriss,
But what should I do for temperature jump at the wall?

I guess you can use a fixedJump condition, but I haven't looked into it. Just try it and inspect the results with paraview.
