Week 6: Conjugate Heat Transfer Simulation
Baseline configuration
- Setup a flow simulation through a pipe
- Inlet Reynolds number should be 7,000
-
HINT : Use the below formula to calculate velocity for corresponding value of REYNOLD NUMBER and give DIRICHLET BC for velocity at inlet and specify the value for velocity calculated at INLET BC using below formula ,
Re = (rho*V*D)/(Dynamic viscosity)
-
- Turbulence modelling - K-Epsilon
- Supercycling parameters - same as in the video
Additional 3D outputs
- Add Y+ to your post.in file
Grid dependence test
- Start with an initial base grid
- Run grid dependence test on 3 grids and show that the outlet temperature converges to a particular value
Effect of supercycle stage interval
- Set supercyle stage interval to 0.01,0.02 and 0.03
- For these three values, how does the total simulation time compare against the baseline configuration
It is expected to show the mesh generation using PARAVIEW.
Also create an animation and upload it on You tube and provide the You tube link for an animaion in your report.
