Gap_Conductance_From_Energy

Syntax

Enforcement For Porous_Enthalpy ([{of} SpeciesName] | [{in} MaterialPhaseName] | [{ls} {a | b | c}]) {=} Gap_Conductance_From_Energy [Toggle = toggle]

Summary

Applies a contact heat flux of the form \alpha (k_{1} \nabla T_{1} \cdot n_{1} + k_{2} \nabla T_{2} \cdot n_{2} + \tilde h (T_{1} - T_{2}) )/2 to ONLY the side of the contact interface containing a POROUS_ENTHALPY equation, where \alpha = 1 - \bar h / 2h. With h, a user defined coefficient and \bar h, an average conductance coefficient, then \tilde h = 2h for h \ll \bar h and \bar h otherwise. Used in conjunction with a CONDUCTANCE COEFFICIENT model and with a GAP_CONDUCTANCE_FROM_POROUS model on energy.

Description

The following options are present in most boundary conditions/sources. The meaning of each option is as follows:

Toggle

If given, specifies which toggle block controls whether this BC is active or not.
