An overview of heat transfer coefficients (htc) and how they are calculated in CFD. The following topics are covered: 1) 1:06 What is the heat transfer coefficient and how is it defined? 2) 17:11 How is the heat transfer coefficient calculated in ANSYS CFX? 3) 18:39 How is the heat transfer coefficient calculated in ANSYS Fluent? 4) 19:57 How is the heat transfer coefficient calculated in OpenFOAM? #heatransfercoefficent #cfd #fluidmechanics101 ==================================================== Some useful references: 1) OpenFOAM wallHeatTransferCoeff.C Source File 2) OpenFOAM command line post-processing guide 3) ANSYS Fluent Discussion of Heat Transfer Coefficient Calcultion 4) ANSYS CFX Discussion of Heat Transfer Coefficient Calculation ============================================ Want to learn more? ============================================ Grab a copy of my CFD Fundamentals Course (for beginners): Learn how to write your own CFD code in MATLAB and python (for intermediates): Learn how I draw my figures and diagrams in Inkscape (for everyone): ============================================ Did you like the video? ============================================ Download the lecture slides from my website: Buy me a coffee to say thanks: Support the channel on Patreon (and get useful extras for your CFD studies): ============================================ Donations: ============================================ 1) PayPal ================================== Disclaimer ================================== The methods, algorithms, equations, formulae, diagrams and explanations in this talk are for educational and demonstrative purposes only.
