Description
Common functions for use in temperature coupled boundaries.
For now only provides the following methods:
- kappa() : heat conduction at patch. Gets supplied how to lookup/calculate
'kappa':
- 'lookup' : lookup volScalarField (or volSymmTensorField) with name
defined in 'kappaName'
- 'fluidThermo' : use fluidThermo and default
compressible::turbulenceModel to calculate kappa
- 'solidThermo' : use solidThermo kappa()
- 'directionalSolidThermo': uses look up for volSymmTensorField for
transformed kappa vector. Field name definable in 'alphaAniName',
named 'Anialpha' in solid solver by default
Common functions used in temperature coupled boundaries.
The thermal conductivity \c kappa may be obtained by the following methods:
- 'lookup' : lookup volScalarField (or volSymmTensorField) with name
defined by 'kappa'
- 'fluidThermo' : use fluidThermo and default
compressible::turbulenceModel to calculate kappa
- 'solidThermo' : use solidThermo kappa()
- 'directionalSolidThermo': uses look up for volSymmTensorField for
transformed kappa vector. Field name definable in 'alphaAni',
named 'Anialpha' in solid solver by default
