Coating dialog box (Multiphysics)

Physical Property Table
Name	Defines the name of the physical property table.
Label	Defines the unique numeric identifier for the physical property table.
Thermo-Optical Properties
Radiation	Activates radiation calculations for the elements in the mesh collector. Select None if you do not want to compute radiation.You can activate radiation calculation for the following faces of the shell: top face, bottom face, or both top and bottom faces.
Top****Bottom	Define the emissivity for modeling radiation.Black BodyDefines an emissivity of 1.Thermo-Optical PropertiesDefines a constant or temperature-varying emissivity.Thermo-Optical Properties-AdvancedDefines the infrared and solar thermo-optical properties for modeling gray radiation or wavelength-dependent thermo-optical properties for modeling non-gray radiation.Select Black Body or a modeling object from the list, or click Create Modeling Object to define a new modeling object.Click Edit to modify the specified modeling object.
Top to Bottom Couplings
Appears when Radiation is set to Top and Bottom.
Create Top and Bottom as Two-Layer Shells	Treats the top and bottom sides of the element as separate, parallel elements.If you do not select this option, the thermal solver models conduction in only two dimensions. For example, when the through-plane temperature differential is insignificant, each element has a single temperature value with no distinction between top and bottom sides.
Account for	Appears when Create Top and Bottom as Two-Layer Shells is selected.Specifies the type of heat transfer that takes place between the top and bottom sides of the element.ConductionSpecifies conductive heat transfer between the top and bottom layers using the value that you set in the Heat Transfer Coefficient box.RadiationSpecifies radiative heat transfer between the top and bottom layers using the value that you set in the Effective Emissivity box.You can calculate the effective emissivity value by multiplying the known emissivity of the layer by the known gray body view factor between the layers. The gray body view factor is the fraction of total radiative energy that leaves one element and that is absorbed by another.Conduction and RadiationSpecifies that both conductive and radiative heat transfer be accounted for using the specified Heat Transfer Coefficient and Effective Emissivity values.NoneSpecifies that no heat transfer exists between the top and bottom sides.Click More Options to search and filter regions. The following options are available.FindLets you search for an object by entering the full name of the object. For example, to find a region named ABC_region, type ABC_region in the search box and press Enter or click Find . If the object is found, it will be selected automatically.Filter by NameLets you filter the list by the names of the objects. This filter supports wildcards. The default wildcard is the asterisk (), and it displays all entries in the list. For example, to filter the list to display every object with a name starting with the letter “a," enter a as the filter string.
