This tutorial shows how to set up a numerical model with conjugated heat transfer using the chtMultiRegionFoam solver. Reactions. the tutorial uses many advanced features of openfoam to efficiently simulate industrial heat transfer applications: chhtmultiregionfoam with 3 domains (1 fluid and 2 solids), transient and. The temperature fields at a coupled boundary patch do not match the temperature field of the adjacent coupled boundary patch of another mesh region. The actual temperature fields were correct, but not correct displayed. Dear FOAMers. This tutorial shows how to set up a numerical model with conjugated heat transfer using the chtMultiRegionFoam solver. There are the following five (virtually four) models available in OpenFOAM. http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Ge_-_planeWall2D, http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/SnappyHexMesh, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-slip_condition, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression, http://www.openfoam.org/docs/user/boundaries.php, http://foam.sourceforge.net/docs/cpp/modules.html. After the first iteration, it's always the result of the simulation. << chtMultiRegionFoam.C. 0000625: conjugate heat transfer - unequal temperature at coupled patches. The fan is modeled through specific boundary conditions simulating a zero-thickness actuator disk. I'm new in OpenFoam and would like to model steady state conjugate heat transfer (solid and fluid region) in a heat exchanger which consists of a few vertical metal plates attached to a horizontal plate with fluid flowing in gaps between plates. This feature already exists in well-known commercial codes. The Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) analysis type allows for the simulation of heat transfer between solid and fluid domains by exchanging thermal energy at the interfaces between them. No, the whole system should be converged. All the above solvers but laplacianFoam are able to deal with the radiative heat transfer. endobj Typical applications of this analysis type exist as, but are not limited to, the simulation of heat exchangers, cooling of electronic equipment . it uses uptodate coefficients on either side when evaluating the coupled boundary condition.

Follow the directions given in the post #34 on the thread "conjugate heat transfer in OpenFOAM" at CFD-Online, to calculate the analytical solution, for comparison with the results achieved with the chtMultiRegion*Foam solvers. Only upon convergence will the temperatures/fluxes be equal. The reason for the unequal distribution was due to some odd behaviour of the reader plugin in paraview.

My current experience with OpenFoam is restricted by "Lid-driven . u =I Note that the multiRegionHeater tutorials are simplified cases and might not even be steady. More specifically, what's the analytical solution of the temperature profile, for an infinite wall scenario, where the water is running at 0.1 m/s and exposed to the heated wall for 30s? It permits the prediction of the flame's characteristics, its emissions, and the consequent heat transfer . For example, if "zeroGradient" was used and in case for whatever reason there is a vortex building up and going out the outlet, it would lead to having fluid flowing outside and coming back in, through the same patch.
