Solar Flux Star CCM+
Hi guys, I have data for direct Solar Flux for a cylinder from with insolation, and im trying to simulate the "changing of solar flux as a function of position" Instead of constant solar flux of 1000w/m2... Hope you can help me our? an example of a function could be: Solar= cos(teta) 1000 * C * Z Where C and a are constant, Z and teta position in the cylinder. Or maybe sett up a table? Many thanks |

from memory solar flux is one of the inputs which does not have a drop down to allow field functions or tables as inputs and only allows constants. you can get around this by simply typing in a formula in place of the constant, and include field functions in that formula if required - eg do it all in a field function first then simply type the field function in the solar flux.

I want to explain better, I have a cylinder I know my field function, I have my Referencing Local Coordinate in the cylinder. my function in the superficial cylinder, is
flux(z,theta,R)= C(theta) where C is a table (star ccm+) where R=cte. where Z has the limit of the cylinder. I meant my flow is dependent only the theta and same in z. I want to do my first field function with star ccm+ and I need something that the star ccm+ help ### Referencing Local Coordinate Systems $$Centroid(@CoordinateSystem("Laboratory.Local Coordenate System.cylinder"))[0] #### Interpolating Scalar or Vector Data as a Function of Another Table Column interpolateTable(@Table("data"), "funtion", LINEAR, "thete", LINEAR) ### function could you help me? Many thanks |
