Detailed Description

Mixed boundary condition for temperature, to be used for heat-transfer on back-to-back baffles. Optional thin thermal layer resistances can be specified through thicknessLayers and kappaLayers entries.

Specifies gradient and temperature such that the equations are the same on both sides:

  • refGradient = qs_/kappa
  • refValue = neighbour value
  • mixFraction = nbrKDelta/(nbrKDelta + myKDelta())

where KDelta is heat-transfer coefficient K*deltaCoeffs and qs is the optional source heat flux.

The thermal conductivity kappa can either be retrieved from various possible sources, as detailed in the class temperatureCoupledBase.

Usage
Property Description Required Default value
Tnbr name of the field no T
thicknessLayers list of thicknesses per layer [m] no
kappaLayers list of thermal conductivities per layer [W/m/K] no
qs Optional source heat flux [W/m^2] no 0
Qs Optional heat source [W] no 0

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            compressible::turbulentTemperatureCoupledBaffleMixed;
        Tnbr            T;
        thicknessLayers (0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4);
        kappaLayers     (1 2 3 4);
        qs              uniform 100;    // Optional source heat flux [W/m^2]
        value           uniform 300;
    }

Needs to be on underlying mapped(Wall)FvPatch.

Note that in order to provide an optional heat source either qs or Qs should be specified, not both.
