Multiphysics Simulation of Natural and Forced Convection in a Heat Exchanger | FEATool Tutorial
Quickstart Video Tutorial - Simulation of Natural and Forced Convection in a Heat Exchanger with the FEATool Multiphysics MATLAB toolbox https://www.featool.com
This heat exchanger model consists of a low temperature coolant flowing around a series of heated pipes. The multiphysics simulation both involves natural convection, through buoyancy effects, as well as forced convection, by coupling transport of the temperature field with the fluid flow.
