solaris New Member Join Date: Dec 2016 Posts: 13 Rep Power: 9	Hi, I am trying to simulate the effect of solar radiation in a solar collector. The absorber is modeled as a wall between two fluids zones (air) and is set as two side wall by Fluent. The problem is when I assigned a heat flux (solar radiation ) on one side only it seems like there is no transfer of heat. and if I do it on the two sides , it seems like I have doubled the heat flux value and the outlet temperature of air is tooooo high, so what should I do ? Thanks to you in advance Solaris
