Hi,

I'm using ANSYS CFX 17.0 to run 3D unsteady CHT CFD simulations.

I've been getting good results, but a colleague has vaguely suggested that I should investigate increasing the number of internal coefficient loops between the solid and the fluid for each timestep iteration.

She is referring to sub-iterations to solve the heat flux (I presume) between the solid and fluid that occur during each main iteration; however, I am not aware of such a setting. Either I've been using some default setting without knowing, or such a sub-iteration doesn't exist.

Is anyone aware of such a solid-fluid sub-iteration / coefficient loop setting?

Thanks,
