Heat Balance Check Elmer Radiation Problem

Post by tanumay »

I am running an ELMER diffused gray radiation problem, attached is the SIF file.

I want to check heat balance, like how much heat is lost by a surface by radiation, how much lost by convection in air and water and how much heat was given as input.

Can I get all these from ELMER as output?

Hi

Perhaps you can use FluxSolver to compute the heat fluxes on the solid parts. Or you could use "Calculate Loads" to get the nodal heat flux. Unfortunately there is no postprocessing features currently that would allow for separation of different fluxes from the various BCs. However, if you have just one type of boundary then you know that the fluxes in the solid domain corresponds to the BC flux.
