Step 12: Change the Boundary Type of Baffle

1.   Read in the case and data files ( do_3x3_3x3_div.cas.gz and do_3x3_3x3_div.dat.gz).

2.   Change the boundary type of baffle to interior.

Boundary Conditions baffle

(a)   Select interior from the Type drop-down list.

  A Question dialog box will open, asking if you want to change Type of baffle to interior.

(b)   Click Yes in the Question dialog box.

(c)   Click OK in the Interior dialog box.

3.   Request another 1000 iterations.

Run Calculation

  The solution will converge in approximately 160 additional iterations.

4.   Plot the temperature profile for baffle interior.

Plots XY Plot Set Up...

(a)   Save the file as do_3x3_3x3_div_baf_int.xy.

(b)   Save the case and data files as do_3x3_3x3_div_int.cas.gz and do_3x3_3x3_div_int.dat.gz.
