Hello. I am currently working on modeling the flow of a liquid when it is heated at different points in a system. I can model the liquid, but I don’t know how to add in new heat at each part of the project. Is simscale able to model heat like that? thanks for any help
Hi @jared_mccarver,
Yes - this is possible. The best workflow depends on what physics you are trying to capture. The usual approaches would be power sources, and wall boundary conditions. This would require a convective heat transfer or conjugate heat transfer analysis type, depending on your physics.
There are quite a few tutorials on such simulations, so I will link a few categories here.
