HI I understood Kappa means thermal conductivity but if I enter any value for it, simulation results in error before starting. So I have to use fluidthermo.
For Kappamethod, I have to chose fluidthermo or solidthermo. I understood depends on the material we have to chose fluidthermo or solidthermo. But I'm not sure how it computes the thermal conductivity value. Also what is kappaname? |

same question, what is kappaMethod, and most importantly how to choose it?
also what is "value" in the code below? it is the value of what? type externalWallHeatFluxTemperature; mode coefficient; Ta constant 303.0; h constant 30; thicknessLayers (0.04585); kappaLayers (0.036); kappaMethod directionalSolidThermo; //fluidThermo; value $internalField; |
