Go back to Day 13.

Conjugate heat transfer - planeWall2D

In this tutorial you will get an introduction to conjugate heat transfer. You will learn how to set up a case for the simulation of a fluid flow in fluid regions as well as the heat conduction in solid regions within one simulation. You will learn about:

  • case setup
  • running the simulation
  • post processing
  • file description
  • understanding the physics
  • boundary layer
  • analytical solution
  • interpreting the results

This tutorial is a continuous work in progress and everyone is welcome to contribute to it!
