[ICEM] Mesh for Conjugate Heat Transfer Problem (2D)

cymbourne · December 9, 2013, 09:23

Hi all!

I'm having some problems getting a boundary layer in a conjugate heat transfer problem. I have 3 surfaces fluid_cold, fluid_hot and solid. I don't know how to create a boundary layer just for the fluid.

1- I created 1 part for each surface
2- I set the mesh parameters in the "part mesh setup" menu
2a - For both fluid domaines I checked "prism"
3- I computed the surface mesh
4- Icem generates a boundary layer on both sides of the line that separates the fluid from the solid

Any suggestions?

My geometry consists of 3 rectangles as follows:

--------------------------------
|······· FLUID_COLD············|
--------------------------------
|·········· SOLID··················|
---------------------------------
|·········FLUID_HOT ············|
--------------------------------

Please share the geometry in .tin format. It will be easy to work on with.

Hey, did you get the solution to your problem. I am also trying to solve a similar type of problem...?
