Hello.
I recently started my first simulation about thermal comfort in a room and I am having a difficult time to get my simulation to give me the data I need. First question is, what i choose, convective heat transfer or conjugate heat transfer?
I used this tutorial(Thermal Comfort In a Meeting Room | Tutorial | SimScale) as a starting point. In my simulation, heat transfer is performed through natural convection and radiation(through radiators), not forced convection. So, what is boundary condition for flow inlet/outlet(my room has only 2 windows and a door)?Also, what sould i select for “assigned volumes” when i define and assign a material (air)?
There’s a pretty important step missing, from the very beginning of the simulation setup. The geometry currently consists of the solid parts of the room:
Hi, the error message suggests that there is a gap somewhere in the model, connecting the environments internal & external to the room.
This could be for example a gap between the walls and the door/windows/floor/ceiling. I’d suggest double checking the CAD model.
On your question about boundary faces/excluded parts: please double check the article that I linked in my previous message. On seed faces, this article should provide more insights if needed.
