By the way, I'll try to make your model work soon. Had no time since your last letter. You also asked about how you should estimate cooling...

Bouyancy is not a boundary condition, it's a fluid model option. By saying "Bouyancy does matter on the outer surface" I presumed that air domain surrounding the device is modelled. I also said that...

This time it's correct to apply heat flux to determine water flow rate required. Heat flow has a choice now: it might be carried away with both water and air.

Quote: "Why use buoyancy model?"

Because it's a little easier than setting momentum source manually.

Quote: "Is it enough to monitor H-Energy of fluid and T-Energy of solid domain imbalances please?"

Yes, should be enough.

Quote: "Dmitry, I think mactech needs the CHT domain for later work so the temperature boundary condition will not help."

Why not? I guess he can still apply temperature BC to the outer surface...

Hello!
If You wish to compare how much heat is taken away at different flow rates, then I think You should better use temperature boundary condition. By specifying heat flux You predetermine the...
