Domain, Boundary, Edge, Point, and Pair Nodes for the High Mach Number Flow Laminar and Turbulent Interfaces
The High Mach Number Flow Interfaces has these domain, boundary, edge, point, and pair nodes available from the Physics ribbon toolbar (Windows users), Physics context menu (Mac or Linux users), or right-click to access the context menu (all users).
In general, to add a node, go to the Physics toolbar, no matter what operating system you are using. Subnodes are available by clicking the parent node and selecting it from the Attributes menu.
The following nodes are slightly different from those in the other physics interfaces and are described in this section (listed in alphabetical order):
•
Fluid
•
Initial Values
•
Inlet
•
Outlet
•
Symmetry
The following nodes (listed in alphabetical order) are described for the Laminar Flow interface:
•
Volume Force
•
Wall
•
Interior Wall
•
Pressure Point Constraint
The Interior Wall feature requires appropriate conditions for the temperature. Use a Thermal Insulation or Temperature node together with Interior Wall to get appropriate boundary conditions for all the flow and heat variables.
For The High Mach Number Flow, k-ε Interface, the same nodes are selected from the Turbulent Flow, k-ε submenus. For The High Mach Number Flow, Spalart-Allmaras Interface, the same nodes are selected from the Turbulent Flow, Spalart-Allmaras submenus.
The following physics nodes and subnodes (listed in alphabetical order) are described for the Heat Transfer interfaces in the Heat Transfer Module User’s Guide. Additional features can also be available when you have additional licenses:
•
Boundary Heat Source
•
Heat Flux
•
Heat Source
•
Solid
•
Line Heat Source
•
Periodic Condition (Heat Transfer Interface)
•
Point Heat Source
•
Diffuse Surface (Surface-to-Surface Radiation Interface)
•
Temperature
•
Thermal Insulation
•
Thin Layer (Heat Transfer Interface) and Solid (Heat Transfer in Shells Interface)
