LinearFVRobinCHTBC
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 Robin-type boundary condition at an interface where heat is exchanged between solid and fluid regions. It is similar in behavior to LinearFVAdvectionDiffusionFunctorRobinBC with the coefficients in the expression aligned with the thermal-hydraulics fields. For more information on the design of CHT, see the CHT capability page.
This boundary condition needs an incoming flux which is typically provided by the SIMPLE-type executioner when conjugate heat transfer is enabled. The automatically created functors within SIMPLE are:
heat_flux_to_solid_* (where * is the interface boundary name)
heat_flux_to_fluid_* (where * is the interface boundary name)
When this boundary condition is action on the fluid side the user is recommended to set "incoming_flux" parameter to the heat_flux_to_fluid functor. The same logic applies to the solid side. Furthermore, this boundary condition also requires a surface temperature which is typically the surface temperature on the other side of the interface. The interface temperatures are also tracked in fuctors and are created within the SIMPLE executioner. The following surface termperatures are created automatically:
interface_temperature_solid_* (where * is the interface boundary name)
interface_temperature_fluid_* (where * is the interface boundary name)

- search_methodnearest_node_connected_sidesChoice of search algorithm. All options begin by finding the nearest node in the primary boundary to a query point in the secondary boundary. In the default nearest_node_connected_sides algorithm, primary boundary elements are searched iff that nearest node is one of their nodes. This is fast to determine via a pregenerated node-to-elem map and is robust on conforming meshes. In the optional all_proximate_sides algorithm, primary boundary elements are searched iff they touch that nearest node, even if they are not topologically connected to it. This is more CPU-intensive but is necessary for robustness on any boundary surfaces which has disconnections (such as Flex IGA meshes) or non-conformity (such as hanging nodes in adaptively h-refined meshes).
