Error/Uncertainty estimation in Heat Transfer Simulations

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello all!

I am curently simulating with Heat Transfer and Surface-to-Surface Radiation.

I am currently seeking some guidance on how to verify the result calculated by Comsol. In general I would like to know how to determine a margin of error on the results of the simulations and what steps I need to take.

There is a lot of literature on the topics of Verification and Validation. But I do not yet understand how to practically estimate errors in my simulations or quantitatively interpret the results of my simulations.

Some help and guidance would be very much appreciated!

Best regards, Yao
