Assignment-2 Problem-1: Heat Transfer MD - Mobeen Pasha ME14BTECH11044

1. The document describes conducting two heat transfer simulations using Fluent software. 2. For the first case with isothermal boundary conditions, the temperature gradually increased from the bottom wall set to 300K to the top wall set to 600K. 3. For the second case with insulated boundary conditions on the left wall, the results were similar with temperature increasing from bottom to top wall.

PROBLEM-1 : HEAT TRANSFER

CASE -1 : ISOTHERMAL BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

1. OPEN FLUENT LAUNCHER -> SELECT 2D DIMENSION -> SELECT OK


2. FILE -> READ -> MESH -> SELECT THE REQUIRED MESH ( IN THIS ASSIGNMENT WE USED
TWO MESHES : (A) UNSTRUCTURED MESH FROM BLOCKING (B) UNSTRUCTURED MESH
FROM CURVE MESH METHOD
3. DISPLAY -> MESH -> SELECT THE SHOWN CURVES -> CLICK DISPLAY : MESH WILL BE
DISPLAYED
4. MODELS -> ENERGY -> TURN ON ENERGY EQUATION
5. MATERIALS -> CREATE/EDIT -> FLUENT DATABASE -> CHANGE FROM FLUID TO SOLID ->
CLICK COPPER (Cu) -> CLICK COPY
6. CELL ZONE CONDITIONS -> CHANGE FROM FLUID TO SOLID -> SELECT COPPER FROM THE
DROP DOWN LIST.
7. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT TOP WALL (WALL-1) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER TEMPERATURE AS 600 K -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
8. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT LEFT WALL (WALL-2) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER TEMPERATURE AS 300 K -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
9. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT BOTTOM WALL (WALL-3) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER TEMPERATURE AS 300 K -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
10. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT RIGHT WALL (WALL-4) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER TEMPERATURE AS 300 K -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
11. SOLUTION INITIALISATION -> SELECT “ STANDARD INITIALISATION” -> SELECT “ABSOLUTE”
-> CLICK “INITIALISE”
12. RUN CALCULATION -> NO. OF ITERATIONS : 100 -> CLICK “CALCULATE” -> AFTER
COMPLETION OF CALCULATIONS -> CLICK “OK”
13. GRAPHICS AND ANIMATIONS -> CONTOURS -> SETUP -> SELECT CONTOURS AS
TEMPERATURE AND STATIC TEMPERATURE -> TICK “FILLED” -> COMPUTE -> DISPLAY
14. WE WILL GET NOW THE TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION IN THE PLATE
15. GRAPHICS AND ANIMATIONS -> CONTOURS -> SETUP -> “NEW SURFACE” -> LINE /RAKE ->
ENTER END POINTS : X=0 , Y=1 ; X=0 , Y= -1 -> NAME IT FOR EXAMPLE : “VERTICAL LINE”
16. PLOTS -> XY -> SETUP -> SELECT THE LINE “VERTICAL LINE” AND ENTER : X = 0 , Y = 1 ->
SELECT Y-AXIS AS TEMPERATURE (STATIC) -> X-AXIS AS THE LINE NAMED AS VERTICAL LINE
-> CLICK “PLOT” TO SEE THE GRAPH -> CLICK “WRITE TO FILE “ TO BE SAVED AS XY FILE
17. FILE -> WRITE -> CASE AND DATA -> NAME THE FILE AS NEEDED.

OBSERVATIONS :

1. WE CAN OBSERVE THE PLOTS COINCIDE FOR BOTH THE MESHES .


2. THE RESULTS ARE INDEPENDENT OF THE METHOD OF MESH OBTAINED
3. THE TEMPERATURE GRADUALLY INCREASED FROM THE BOTTOM WALL TO TOP WALL.
CASE -2 : INSULATED BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

1. OPEN FLUENT LAUNCHER -> SELECT 2D DIMENSION -> SELECT OK


2. FILE -> READ -> MESH -> SELECT THE REQUIRED MESH ( IN THIS ASSIGNMENT WE USED

8. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT LEFT WALL (WALL-2) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER HEAT FLUX AS 0 Wb/m2 -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
9. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT BOTTOM WALL (WALL-3) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
“THERMAL” TAB -> ENTER TEMPERATURE AS 300 K -> CHANGE MATERIAL TO COPPER
10. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS -> SELECT RIGHT WALL (WALL-4) AND CLICK “EDIT’ AND THEN
