Conjugate heat transfer

jev · April 22, 2016, 21:55

Hi...
I am trying to learn chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam. I ran the tutorial problem multiRegionHeaterRadiation. In that example, i dont understand where to give heater dimensions. I would like to modify this problem with a single heater at the bottom of a channel through which there is air flow. Can anyone help me?
Thank you..

Hi jev,

First of all, if you are taking your first stepms with this solver I strongly recomend you to take a look at this tutorial! This is an introductory simple case to chtMultiRegion* solvers. After that, you can start doing your own things, but first you have to train yourself hard with the planeWall2D tutorial!

Besides that, I also recomend you to take a look at mi site, since there I have some tutorials about conjugate heat transfer and radiation in OpenFOAM.

Hope it helps,

Alex

Some basic tutorials are also resolved step by step in the web. If you are interested in these matters, you are invited to come in!
