Class 3 Error

SYMPTOM:
When a quantitiative calculation using the variable 'Heat Flux' is performed in CFX Post for a simulation including radiation, the result does not match the same calculation performed using the variable 'Wall Heat Flux'.

PROBLEM:
This is due to a bug in CFX Post. The variable 'Heat Flux' does not include the radiative flux component, whereas its' hybridized counterpart 'Wall Heat Flux' does. Since for quantitiative calculations in CFX Post it is recommended that the variable 'Heat Flux' is used (to avoid hybridization effects), the difference for many simulations (e.g. combustion)


WORKAROUND:
No workaround is currently available.

FIXED IN:
ANSYS CFX Release 11.0.
