Duct Convection Correction dialog box (Thermal/Flow/SST/ESC/Multiphysics)

Properties
Correction Catalog Opens the Correction Catalog dialog box. You can select a pre-existing duct convection correction for the heat transfer coefficient that you defined in the correction.xml file. When you select an item from the catalog, the software writes the item’s values in the Multiplier, Temperature Ratio Exponent, Temperature Difference Exponent, and Reference Temperature boxes.
Correction Specifies the name of the correction item in the catalog. You cannot modify this name in this dialog box. You can only modify it in the XML file.
MultiplierTemperature Ratio ExponentTemperature Difference Exponent****Reference Temperature Set the values for the multiplier, C, the temperature ratio exponent, r, the temperature difference exponent, d, and the reference temperature, Tref, that are used in the following equation that corrects the heat transfer coefficient, h0:Twall is the temperature of the convecting surface and Tfluid is the temperature of the fluid in the ducts.
