Hello,
I am doing a project on flasks. For part of my project I want to analyse how quickly the container will lose heat depending on material and shape. I don’t have much experience with this software so any help as to how I would go about this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi,
Based on the description, I believe the most cost-effective way to study that would be a transient heat transfer simulation:
You’d be able to initialize certain parts of the domain (subdomains) or the entire domain (global initialization) at a given temperature:
And then you can set a heat sink mechanism. In your case, likely a convective heat flux boundary condition for the outer walls of the container.
You should be able to find similar projects by searching in the public projects section.
Cheers
