Hello
I am relatively new to FLUENT. I have a very basic question to ask. I am running a simulation which involves a varying specific heat to incorporate the latent heat. My UDF is as follows: DEFINE_SPECIFIC_HEAT(my_specific_heat, T,Tref,h,yi) { real cp; if (T>1363.) { cp=23550.; } else if (T < 1383.) { cp=23550.; } else { cp=1050; } *h=cp*(T-Tref); return cp; } I wanted to know where I can set the reference temperature? The manual says it can be set in the Materials panel. However, I do not see the option for reference temperature there. Would I have to activate a model so that I can set the reference temperature? Is there any other way I can set it? |

On the fluent interface, there must be a tab "reference values" on the left side. You can change the temperature using that.

Thanks for the help. I can change the reference temperature.
