HeatTransferFromSpecifiedTemperature1Phase
This component is a single-phase heat transfer component that specifies a convective heating condition via a provided wall temperature.
Usage
The user must supply the name of the connected flow channel via the parameter "flow_channel".
The parameter "P_hf" is optional and specifies the heated perimeter ; if unspecified, this is computed from the cross-sectional area assuming a circular cross section.
The parameter "Hw" is optional and specifies the heat transfer coefficient ; if unspecified, it is computed using the selected closures. Note that depending on the type of heat transfer and the chosen closures, it may not be relevant.
The parameter "T_wall" specifies the wall temperature function .

Advanced Parameters
Formulation
In general, a single-phase heat transfer adds some heat flux term to the energy equation:
where is a heat flux at the flow channel wall, and is the heated perimeter.
This component computes the wall heat flux as follows:

# This input file is used to demonstrate a simple closed, air Brayton cycle using

# The flow length is divided into 6 segments as illustrated below, where

# - "(T)" denotes the turbine
# - "*" denotes a fictitious junction
#
# Heated section Cooled section
# *-----(C)-----*--------------*-----(T)-----*--------------*

#
# Initially the fluid is at rest at ambient conditions, the shaft speed is zero,
# and no heat transfer occurs with the system.
# The transient is controlled as follows:
# * 0 - 100 s: motor ramps up torque linearly from zero
# * 100 - 200 s: motor ramps down torque linearly to zero, HTC ramps up linearly from zero.
# * 200 - 300 s: (no changes; should approach steady condition)
