Detailed Description

Model for heat exchange. Requires specification of an ambient temperature with which to exchange heat, and a model for the heat transfer coefficient (htc) and the area per unit volume (Av). These are then used to apply the following source to the energy equation:

\[ -htc*Av*(T_a - T) \]

If the semiImplicit option is set, then this becomes:

\[ -htc*Av*(T_a - T) + htc*Av/Cp*h - Sp(htc*Av/Cp, h); \]

Usage
Example usage:
heatTransfer
{
    type            heatTransfer;

    select          cellSet;
    cellSet         c0;

    semiImplicit    no;

    Ta              300;

    Av              200;

    heatTransferCoefficientModel constant;

    htc             10;
}
