buoyantSimpleRadiationFoam: BC

Dear All,

I am trying to use the buoyantSimpleRadiationFoam solver and I am finding it a bit difficult to find out how BC can be set.

What about the G BC? In the tutorials, all the patches are walls and G is defined like this:

Code:

    chamber_outlet

    {

        type            MarshakRadiation;

        T               T;

        emissivityMode  lookup;

        emissivity      uniform 1.0;

        value           uniform 0;

What about when I have an inlet and/or an outlet?

Also, what about the radiation models? Which ones are available?

Is there a pdf where this solver is detailed?

Thanks a lot,
Samuele

I have similar problems. waiting for help.

Hello,
At this time, perhaps, do you know the answer to your question? Or does anybody else.
Thanks.
