Dear Flow Simulation Forum Members,
I have read the help files and am not sure if I am setting up my problem correctly. My problem is as follows:
I want to pulse a surface heat source; on for 3 seconds and off for 7 seconds. I want to simulate one hour of operation or until the solid temperature has reached steady state.
I have set up the problem as follows:
General Settings:
Time Dependent: checked
Calculation Control Options:
Finish Tab:
Finish Conditions:
Maximum Physical Time:
Value=3600s
Heat Sources:
Surface Source:
Toggle:
Dependency: f(x)
Dependency type: F(time) - table
Table of values:
value t Toggle
0 s On
3 s Off
10 s On
Does this correctly simulate the pulsing of my surface source 3s on, 7s off, for 1 hour?
Thank you,
Jerry
