Convective Heat Transfer with Pseudo-Periodicity

Application ID: 12057


This model simulates convective heat transfer in a channel filled with water. To reduce memory requirements, the model is solved repeatedly on a pseudo-periodic section of the channel. Each solution corresponds to a different section, and before each solution step the temperature at the outlet boundary from the previous solution is mapped to the inlet boundary.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
