When Specify is Thermal and geometric properties, further settings display underneath to define the thermal resistance depending on the thermal conductivity and the geometric configuration.
|
•
|
Plane shell (the default): set values or expressions for the surface Area A and the Thickness L of the plane. The thermal resistance is then defined as
|
•
|
Cylindrical shell: set values or expressions for the Inner radius ri, the Outer radius ro, and the Height H of the cylinder. The thermal resistance is then defined as
|
•
|
Spherical shell: set values or expressions for the Inner radius ri and the Outer radius ro of the sphere. The thermal resistance is then defined as
|
•
|
Horizontal cavity heated from below, for which values for the Cavity height H and the Temperature difference ΔT should be specified for the computation of the Nusselt number. Unfold the Sketch section for details about the required parameters.
|
•
|
Vertical rectangular cavity, for which values for the Cavity height H, the Plate distance L, and the Temperature difference ΔT should be specified for the computation of the Nusselt number. Unfold the Sketch section for details about the required parameters. By default, the Thickness value set in the Component Parameters section for L is used for the Plate distance.
