2D Steady Convection

Created using ANSYS 13.0

Problem Specification

A fluid flows through enters a pipe with of radius 0.06 meters at a constant velocity of 0.1 m/s. The fluid has a density of 1.2 kg/m^3, a thermal conductivity of 0.02 W/mK, a specific heat of 1000 J/kgK, and a viscosity of 1.8e-5 kg/ms. The first 5.76 meters of the pipe are isothermal, held at 300 K. The remaining 2.88 meters of the pipe have a constant heat flux of 37.5 W/m^2 added at the wall.

A pipe flow with convection is a boundary value problem. The boundary condition and the governing equations are shown below:

S_h is the source term in the energy equation and is equal to zero in this study.

Using ANSYS WorkbenchUsing ANSYS FLUENT, simulate the above problem flow. Calculate and graph plot the temperature along the axis of the pipe and the temperature distribution at the outletvelocity, temperature, pressure and Nusselt number variation in the pipe.
