  • Would it be possible to run a similar simulation wherein one specifyies a heat transfer rate from the exterior surfaces, instead of a heat transfer coefficient?

  • @JonJT4 Hi: Yes you can do that directly. Right click on "loads" and choose "Heat transfer rate", select the face and then you can enter a Q value directly. I hope that helps! Tony Botting

  • need serial flow simulator

  • Sorry, there is a flub..the fluid gets more dense as it contacts the cool cup walls and falls to the bottom. Not LESS dense!!
