Quadrupole magnet coil heat transfer
 
Hi,


I received a task to do a heat transfer analysis of a quadrupole magnet. It consists a magnet coil with a water flowing inside a circular hollow cooling the magnet. Please find here:

the catia and .stp file showing the construction. Could you do it or show something similar? I have been watching many videos covering similar topics, but I found it very hard to implement in my case from my perspective. The biggest problem I have is with setting the boundaries, The magnet generates 0,95kW and the water inlet temperature is 298K and the ambient temperature is 293K.

The problem is that I get all the errors regarding the solver and the divergence, actually I tried to do it in several different ways, but always no success.

I have also been wondering if this could be done with the steady-state thermal workbench module.


I would really appreciate any help.


Thank you.
Best regards,
Kuba
