Hi everyone...
I have a function of heat transfer coefficient

htc=(0.0487)+(0.581)V-(0.00646) V^2

where V is the velocity of air, and its value should extract from the solver of fluent first, and then substituted it in the function above to compute the value of htc at different velocities. How could I write this function in UDF to compile it in fluent?

Do you use a no-slip BC at the wall? Hick makes your velocity zero? In that case, HTC is also zero...

Be clear about which V you are exactly talking!

Thank you very much for replay...
Yes, I use a no-slip BC at the wall. But the HTC that I want is overall my domain (that is, in every cell in the domain).

Sure, you can calculate a HTC everywhere, but isn't the only place where it is used for anything at a solid-fluid interface?

In my view, you are just requesting a complicated way to get adiabatic conditions...

I have a file including a porous medium with heat transfer. And in a second file I test the HTC that must be in the porous medium with different velocities by making a real wall and fluid (without porous medium in second file). Finally, I get the function which I wrote above…

In the first file, the values of velocities is unknown (it depending on the operating fluid). What did you think should I do? I’m really appreciate your reply... thank you very much.

Different velocities where? At the wall? Far away? At the inlet?

At inlet, in the second file the domain is very simple, just a vertical rectangular, the outlet and inlet at top and bottom respectively, and thermal wall at one side. And then I want to apply the above function at the wall of the first domain. Can I do that

Heat transfer is best described by local properties. Not by velocities at a distance... So I don't understand why you decided to link the heat transfer at the wall to the velocity at the inlet. It's like coupling the HTC to the free disk space on your hard drive. Sure, you could do it, but why? A local property, such as wall shear stress or velocity gradient at the wall, makes much more sense...

Edit: but possibly I completely misunderstand the porous zone. Probably.
