1 Short description

This turorial case analyzes thermal flow in air-conditioned room. It also compares CFD result.

2 Usage

See README attached in the tar ball below.

3 Requirements

  • This case requires groovyBC library in swak4Foam and plotting utility gnuplot.
  • If you want to add Viollet type buoyancy term to the k-epsilon turbulent model, choose kEpsilonViollet for RASModel instead of kEpsilon in the constant/RASProperties. To use this turbulent model library kEpsilonViollet will be required.
  • If you want to make figures like velocity vecotor or temperature contour, GMT and ruby will be required.

4 Download

5 Download (Old versions for 1.5.x or 1.6.x)

Incompressible thermal flow solver boussinesqBuoyantSimpleFoam and gnuplot are required to run this tutorial.

If you use fixed heat flux B.C. instead of place heat source you also need install wallHeatFlux library.
