user-defined ( time dependent) heat flux

Roman1 · January 6, 2015, 14:04

Hello all! With the help of the boundary condition ExternalWallHeatFlux one can arrange constant heat flux. Is there possibility of arranging user-defined ( time dependent) heat flux from the wall to the air? Thanks

You can try with funkySource options that locked in with swak4Foam (https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib/swak4Foam).

Cheers,

Thanks, but I have never used swak4Foam and, at first glance, it will take much time to run needed case. Of course, this is a powerful tool and each user of OpenFoam must be familiar with it. In order to make a quick start with swak4Foam please write a simple example about related topic. Thanks.
