Time Dependent Boundary Condition...

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi...I'm working with the Heat Transfer Module, and I need to implement a time varying boundary condition (The temperature in one wall changes in time). I have experimental data of the temperature (boundary condition) in form of an array, and of course and array of time (sample time).

Can I implement a time dependent boundary condition in a form of array (Temperature vs Time)???

Edwin

Hi Edwin, i'm working with the crystallization of polyethylene.
The growthvelocity in one of the boundaries changes with the temperature.
The temperature is a time dependent condition because the polymer is cooling.
Could you help me to change the T as a function of the time.

Thanks a lot

Hi

for me you shold be able to replace any cnstatn value by a function be it analytical (time dependent) or piecevise developed based on data points.

Try it out on a very simple case in th to convince yourself

Have fun Comsoling
