hi every body i am working at heat transfer in porous media and a wanna to know can i simulate conjugate heat transfer in the porous zone using fluent.
thank u every body

Yes you can simulate conjugate heat transfer in porous media by using material physical properties. after simulation you will used the corresponding temperature for heat transfer of different modes. thanks

first ,thanks for your response but in fluent we have to specify heat transfer cofficient for considering heat transfer. but what can i do if heat transfer cofficient be unknown??

well come, FLUENT can't calculate all parameters at a time. FLUENT will provide you some parameters and then carry out that parameters for further calculation manually. Create different surface within simulation control volume, just specified temperature at boundaries of your problem. after simulation and convergent solution FLUENT will provide you heat transfer coefficient and temperature distribution through out you flow domain. you can enter temperatures and heat transfer coefficient calculated by FLUENT in formulas of conduction and convection manually. FLUENT will just only provide you the temperatures distribution and heat transfer coefficient. you will then forward and use these values manually. i think this idea will help you. thanks
