Heat transfer in Lagrangian particle tracking for real gas
 

Hello All;

I am simulating a two-phase flow (gas + liquid) that involves heat transfer between the particles and the continuous phase, using a particle user routine. I am able to calculate the heat transfer when I define the continuous phase as an ideal gas, but when I try to use real gas formulations, CFX Pre does not allow me to specify the temperature of the particles at the inlet.

I could not find any restrictions on the continuous phase in the Modeling Guide, so I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue before/know a work-around.

Thanks,
CVH
