How to adjust the supply temperature based on a probe reading in OpenFOAM?

er_ijaz · June 23, 2020, 10:58

Hi I'm working on HVAC modelling, I need to adjust the supply temperature based on a probe reading or avg measurement over a patch. The supply temperature need to be adjusted every iteration (for steady state) or time step (for transient analyses).
Can I who how to do it in OpenFOAM?

If its something static then you can simply write a file and read it in your BC otherwise if its dynamic in nature you can simply implement the changes to your boundary patch in your solver or write a new BC which reads the data as per your need.
