LinearFVDirichletCHTBC

Description

This object is a boundary condition used in the Navier-Stokes module that can be used for conjugate heat transfer (CHT) problems. Its role is to enforce a fixed Dirichlet value at an interface where heat is exchanged between solid and fluid regions. In practice, it is a wrapper around LinearFVAdvectionDiffusionFunctorDirichletBC with additional content allowing error checking in CHT applications. For more information on the design of CHT, see the CHT capability page. The inherited functor Dirichlet implementation automatically determines the appropriate interface side from the supplied functor during evaluation.
