Hallo,
first, what do I want to do. I want to simulate the heating of water in a pipe whichs walls are heated. The heat flux,which i know, across the wall is supposed to be konstant. I want to use k,Omega turbulence model in steady state. I know the water temperature, viskostity, k, omega at the inlet. I know the surfaice roughness at the wall. So I can use a wall funktion for k and omega. (The turbulent part of the system) What I don't know and do not want to gues is the heat transfere coefficient, because that is exactly what I am looking fore. The solvier is buoyantSimpleFoam. If I try to use turbulent heat flux temperature at the wall the wall temperature is much much much too hich. If I use konstant wall temperature the amount of heat transfered into the water seems to be reasonably correct. There is an unresolved thread regarding the same problem in the forum. I think that it is common to have a fixed heat flux and calculate the heat transfered to a fluid so it should not be too difficult to do that. I would be very thankfull for information clarifiying what I am doing wron in using fixed heat flux. Thanks a lot. Best regards. Benjamin |
