Using a Flow Blockage with other types of boundary conditions
Modeling thermal conductances
To model thermal conductances between a Solid or Porous type Flow Blockage simulation object and other parts of the model, you can apply the following boundary conditions or simulation objects to the blockage's geometry:
Convection to Environment constraint
Initial Temperature constraint
Radiation simulation objects
Simple Radiation to Environment constraint
Temperature constraint
Thermal Loads load
Thermal Coupling simulation object
You cannot apply the following simulation objects to the geometry of a Solid type of Flow Blockage simulation object:
Flow Boundary Condition
Flow Surface
Screen
Modeling related flow conditions
To model related flow conditions, you can apply the following simulation objects to the polygon faces that delimit a Porous type of Flow Blockage:
