However I am struggling to impliment either of these methods. Any guidance would be much appreciated!

For reference. I do not need to model the chemistry occuring in the burner. However, the temperature of the gas should jump in the flame zone. The import aspect that I am looking at is how the flow leaves the burner and interacts with a surface close by

I believe I can impliment (2) by using the fan boundary condition on the patch and setting the temperature to be the desired value

Hello, I'm new here. I'm working in doing a simulation of an anisothermal lid driven cavity filled with water (mixed convection) and i am kinda lost on which solver to use

I am using openfoam 11 and started doing it with (fluid) solver while using boussinesq as equation of state but i don’t think it’s working well for me. 😦 any recommendations?

hi, some proprietary software has shell conduction option for conjugate heat transfer. for a zero thickness wall it allows to specify the layers materials and thicknesses and volumetric heat source in solution setup, then models conduction both parallel and perpendicular to the surface. is this available in opemfoam? any examples please? thanks

Yes, ``thermalBaffle`` in the OpenCFD branch : https://develop.openfoam.com/Development/openfoam/-/blob/OpenFOAM-v2412/src/regionModels/thermalBaffleModels/derivedFvPatchFields/thermalBaffle/thermalBaffleFvPatchScalarField.H There is a tutorial using it: ``$FOAM_TUTORIALS/heatTransfer/buoyantSimpleFoam/roomWithThickCeiling``

In the foundation branch I think there is only ``thermalBaffle1D``

Does anyone have an idea how to postProcess heat transfer coefficient

I am using buoyantPimpleFoam

I saw the video from fluid mechanics 101

I extract wallHeatFlux but what to do after that

Is there a function to get heat transfer coefficient

Directly

Using kOmegaSST

Depending on the OpenFOAM branch you use: https://doc.openfoam.com/2306/tools/post-processing/function-objects/field/heatTransferCoeff/ or https://cpp.openfoam.org/v9/classFoam_1_1functionObjects_1_1wallHeatTransferCoeff.html.

functions { heatTransferCoeff { type heatTransferCoeff; libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so"); field T; writeControl timeStep; writeInterval 1000; patches (hot cold insulatedwall); htcModel fixedReferenceTemperature; TRef 303; } } used this and it gave me a heatTransferCoeff field

but it is coming out to be infinity

can it be because of my 2d case

maybe its because i am using a wrong patch

insulatedwall has zero gradient why would it have heat flux

omg i am domb\

is still -1.4e145

hi. thank you. um, i didnt know there are separate branches foundation and opencfd

there is .com and .org which is which?

.com is the OpenCFD branch

[at this moment]

and .org the foundation branch

ok thank you

True. OpenCFD always remained OpenCFD so far, despite being owned by SGI, then ESI and now Keysight. But I guess the future of OpenCFD is in Keysight hands now.
