titleNotes to Cornell MAE 4272 Students:

You need to repeat the FLUENT simulation with inputs from YOUR MEASUREMENTS in the lab. To compare the FLUENT results with experiment, you can export the FLUENT result into Excel. A sample comparison is shown below.

You can export the data by clicking on the Export button in "Details of centerline temperature"

Image Added

Wall Temperature Plot

We will now investigate the temperature variation along the wall. To do this we need to create a new line on the simulation. It needs to be a horizontal line correponding to the wall.

...

Now click on Data Series tab to specify the location of the chart data. Change the name of the first data series from Series 1 to FLUENT. Under Data Source, specify Wall as Location.

As before, we would also like to compare our simulation result with experimental data. Experimental data can be downloaded here. Now, click a new data series Image Removed. Name it Experiment. Under Data Source, select File and browse for the downloaded experimental data.

Again in this case, the x-axis is the x-position along the pipe and the y-axis denotes temperature.
