Detailed Description

This boundary condition provides a coupled temperature condition between multiple mesh regions.

The regions are generally referred to as the:

  • primary region,
  • and baffle region.

The primary region creates the baffle region and evolves its energy equation either:

  • 1-D, normal to each patch face
  • 3-D, normal and tangential components

The thermodynamic properties of the baffle material are specified via dictionary entries on the master patch.

The underlying polyPatch on the primary region needs to be defined as a complete mappedWall. i.e:

    type            mappedWall;
    sampleMode      nearestPatchFace;
    samplePatch     <patchName>;
    sampleRegion    <regionName>;

    coupleGroup     <coupleGroupName>;

The /keyword{internal} is true when the thermal baffle is used on internal faces and the baffle is coupled on both sides (bottom and top).

If this baffle is used on a patch set internal = false. By default is true.

Usage
Example of the boundary condition specification:
<masterPatchName>
{
    type                compressible::thermalBaffle;

    // Underlying coupled boundary condition
    Tnbr               T;
    kappaMethod        fluidThermo; // or solidThermo
    kappa              none;

    qr                 none;// or none.Name of qr field on localregion
    value              uniform 300;

    // Baffle region name
    region              baffleRegion;
    active              yes;
    internal            yes;

    // Solid thermo in solid region
    thermoType
    {
        type            heSolidThermo;
        mixture         pureMixture;

    }

    mixture
    {
        specie
        {
            molWeight       20;
        }
        transport
        {
            kappa           0.01;
        }
        thermodynamics
        {
            Hf              0;
            Cp              15;
        }
        density
        {
            rho             80;
        }
    }

    radiation
    {
        radiationModel  opaqueSolid;
        absorptionEmissionModel none;
        scatterModel    none;
    }

    // Extrude model for new region

    extrudeModel        linearNormal;
    nLayers             50;
    expansionRatio      1;
    columnCells         false; //3D or 1D
    linearNormalCoeffs
    {
        thickness           0.02;
    }

}

If the thermal baffle is used on internal faces of the primary region, then the slave in this region is defined as :

Slave patch on primary region:

<slavePatchName>
{
    type                compressible::thermalBaffle;
    kappaMethod         fluidThermo;
    kappa               none;
    value               uniform 300;

Patches on baffle region:

bottom
{
    type                compressible::thermalBaffle;
    kappaMethod         solidThermo;
    kappa               none;
    value               uniform 300;
}

top
{
    type                compressible::thermalBaffle;
    kappaMethod         solidThermo;
    kappa               none;
    value               uniform 300;
}
