The Heat Transfer in Fluids (
) interface is used to model heat transfer in fluids by conduction, convection, and radiation. A
Fluid model is active by default on all domains. All functionality for including other domain types, such as a solid domain, is also available.
When this version of the physics interface is added, these default nodes are added to the Model Builder —
Fluid,
Thermal Insulation (the default boundary condition), and
Initial Values. Then, from the
Physics toolbar, add other nodes that implement, for example, boundary conditions and sources. You can also right-click
Heat Transfer in Fluids to select physics features from the context menu.
) and select Advanced Physics Options in the Show More Options dialog box. The rest of the settings are the same as for The Heat Transfer in Solids Interface. See Settings for the Heat Transfer Interface for a description of the other settings.
