Hello Guys, I've created a simple code which is used to show symmetrical temperature distribution on a disc. But it's only symmetrical in one axis direction. How to change a code to make a circular distribution in all directions not only in one axis ? Is it possible ? I've tried to enter a circle equation but it's not working..

#include "udf.h"                       
DEFINE_PROFILE(inlet_x_temperature, thread, position)            
{
real x[ND_ND]; /* this will hold the position vector */
real y;            
face_t f;
begin_f_loop(f, thread)
{
F_CENTROID(x,f,thread);     
y = x[1];                          
if(y<=0)
{
F_PROFILE(f, thread, position) = 300-y;
}
else
{
F_PROFILE(f, thread, position) = 300+y;
}
}
end_f_loop(f, thread)
}

You're currently setting the temperature profile as which agrees well with your result (independent of x).

For a radial temperature profile you must first calculate the radial component (assuming the origin is at ) and then .

An example code snippet:

F_PROFILE(f, thread, position) = sqrt(x[0]*x[0] + x[1]*x[1]) + 300.;

Everything's working fine but now I have a question how to change equation to get parabolic and circular (in all sides) temperature distribution. I attach an image to show what exactly I mean.

Look again at what `e` typed, but use a different equation for T.
For example: .

(Or, including units: .)
