thermal stratification of a water container
thermal stratification of a water container
(OP)
A large container is partially filled with water. The rest is occupied by air. For reasons of simplicity we assume a steady heat flux on the top surface (solar load) and a general convection that takes place on all surfaces. I want to model the thermal stratification that will take place within the container. I haven't found anything similar so far. Which analysis system would be more suitable? I tried using CFX (ansys 16) but i keep getting weird temperatures.
