[Mihiran]

Hi everyone!
I am Mihiran, a new user of OpenFoam. I have a basic idea of this software and very much interested in doing the following simulation.

It is a concentric tube (Annulus) heat exchanger and water flows counter current. I need to model
I.) the heat transfer from the hot fluid through copper wall to the cold fluid. and
II.) the velocity and pressure drop

Please help me in the following problems...

1. I am going to use chtMultiRegion for this. will this be ok?
2. Are there any tutorials that you can recommend to do before I start?
3. will it be a good idea to do I.) and II.) with separate meshes?

thanks in advance..
