Description

The compressible::thermalBaffle is a boundary condition that provides a coupled temperature condition between multiple mesh regions.

Usage

The condition requires entries in both the boundary and field files.

Boundary file 

<patchName>
{
    type            patch;
    ...
}

Field file 

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            thermalBaffle;

    // Optional entries
    internal        <bool>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}

where:

Property Description Type Required Default
type Type name: compressible-thermalBaffle word yes -
internal Flag to deduce if the baffle is internal bool no true

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

  • turbulentTemperatureRadCoupledMixedFvPatchScalarField.H
  • thermalBaffleModel.H
  • extrudePatchMesh.H
