Dear OpenFOAMers,

I would like to run a natural convection case (air is the fluid) using chtMultiRegionFoam solver. I am wondering if someone can share some tips on setting up this type of cases and/or examples.

Say, I have bucket of cold water at 10 C, sitting on a driveway at 30 C ambient. The bucket is made of steel. I want to compute the water warm up profile as a function of time.

Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

Pei
