ConvectiveFluxFunction
Determines boundary value by fluid heat transfer coefficient and far-field temperature
Description
The ConvectiveFluxFunction boundary condition is used to prescribe the following convective flux to a boundary of a thermal model: where is the heat transfer coefficient, is the temperature at a location , where is the location of a given quadrature point on the surface where this boundary condition is applied, and is the far-field temperature of the fluid that the boundary is exposed to.
The far-field temperature is specified using the T_infinity parameter, which is a MOOSE Function. This can be provided as the name of a function, using a parsed function, or a constant value. Likewise, the heat transfer coefficient is specified using the coefficient parameter, which is also a MOOSE Function, and the same options for how to prescribe T_infinity also apply for this parameter. By default, the heat transfer coefficient function is defined in terms of position and time (the standard usage of MOOSE Functions). If the optional coefficient_function_type parameter is set to TEMPERATURE, the coefficient is instead a function of the temperature. If a Function such as PiecewiseLinear were used to define this coefficient, the values on the x-axis of that function would be interpreted as temperature values. If a parsed function were used for this purpose, the t variable in a parsed equation would be used for the temperature, rather than for the time.
