I'm currently trying to simulate within ANSYS v16.1 within the workbench that involves Fluent (CFD).

The model that I'm trying to simulate is the heat transfer in a mini-channel, in order to gain a set of Nusselt number results for the following different prandtl numbers of 5.4 and 2.2 with a Reynold's number of 4000 - 10,000 based on laminar flow.

I found an example that was similar to my problem, shown in the link provided below. However the difference is that I am using liquid water (instead of air as shown in the link) and the channel is only heated from one side.

I have based my simulation on the example shown in the link and I've changed the fluid state from air to liquid water and the program isn't allowing to get a set of results. It doesn't seem to carry the calculations out and collect results from the model.

I would appreciate it greatly for anyone who is able to give me a step in the right direction or recommend any book or a document that will be of great help.

Thank you very much.
