Thermal boundary conditions

Thermal boundary conditions

Ver: 1

DESCRIPTION

For non-isothermal problems, boundary conditions must be specified for the energy equation, in terms of Dirichlet (prescibed temperature) and/or Neumann (prescribed heat flux) conditions.

The title of each entry contains the current type of thermal boundary condition and the boundary set number. Selecting an entry allows the user to modify the current type of boundary condition and/or some parameters of a particular boundary set. The default boundary condition is a vanishing temperature.

OPTIONS

-1
Upper level menu

The current thermal boundary conditions are accepted

0
Surface Heat source

For film and shell models, allows to introduce surface heat flux on the whole domain of the sub-task. This flux can be defined in the same way one defines the heat flux along a boundary set.

i
Type_of_thermal_boundary_conditions along boundary j

Mnemonic for the type of boundary condition and the boundary set number.
Select this entry to modify the boundary condition.
