How can I visualize the temperature gradient in ANSYS CFX?
|
The gradient of temperature is not a standard variable but it can be represented by a vector Additional Variable (AV) which is created in CFX-Pre. The components of the AV are defined as the components of the gradient, as shown in the excerpt of CCL below: LIBRARY: ADDITIONAL VARIABLE: GradT Option = Definition Tensor Type = VECTOR Units = [K m^-1 ] Variable Type = Unspecified END END FLOW: DOMAIN: MyDomain FLUID MODELS: ADDITIONAL VARIABLE: GradT Option = Vector Algebraic Equation Vector xValue = Temperature.Gradient X Vector yValue = Temperature.Gradient Y Vector zValue = Temperature.Gradient Z END END END END |
