Multiple Volumes and Flows with Conduction
Submitted by ken on February 3, 2014 - 23:35
I am wanting to know if I can set up a model where a pipe of solid material can pass through a volume with a fluid passing through that outer volume over the outside of the pipe. The pipe will be made of a solid material and a fluid will be flowed through the pipe.
Obviously this model will represent a fluid to fluid heat exchanger with a solid material interface. I noticed that I can select a solid for a substance. Is such a complicated interface between two fluids with a solid between them for conduction possible? If so, what needs to be done to make it work?
thanks

Conjugate heat transfer not supported
No, Caedium does not support simultaneous fluid convection and solid conduction, known as conjugate heat transfer.
