Conjugate Heat Transfer v2.0

Conjugate heat transfer v2.0 is a multi-purpose analysis type capable of simulating fluid flow and heat transfer including: solid/fluid conduction, natural or forced convection, and thermal radiation. The solver supports heat sources derived from the Joule heating of electronic circuits and both surface to surface and solar radiation. An arbitrary number of solid and/or fluid regions may be simulated. By solving both the flow fields and heat transfer equations simultaniously, this solver is ideally suited for but not limited to applications such as: electronics cooling, heat exchangers, and HVAC systems.
