Hey guys,

I try to simulate a verticale plate in the atmosphere. For this case I create a box and on one side I add a small plate. Around I want to have everywhere atmosphere (air). The plate should have an temperature from 333 K and the atmosphere should have 293 K.

However I get always worst results. I think my boundarys are wrong.

Have somebody fixed this issue and can sent me a example case or tell me the right boundarys in the T, U, p_rgh and P file for my plate and the atmosphere?


regards
Michael
