Nusselt Number Variation

Note: When you create graphs of the Nusselt number in Excel, you need to transfer the data points from the exported CSV file from ANSYS over to an Excel workbook file (.xlsx). A CSV file is just a flat text file that uses a delimiter to separated the fields (in this case, a comma). It CANNOT save any formulas or plots. A xlsx file is the typical file format for Excel, just as docx is it for words. In a xlsx you can save the formulas, graphs, pivots, etc in the file. It was mentioned in the video, but we wanted to emphasize.
