Is anyone able to provide a tutorial on how to use the software for setting up a multiple material heat transfer case?

Hi Andrew,

the Case Builder does not support all features of OpenFOAM.

There is currently no support for multi-region CHT, if you are looking after that. We have plans to add this feature, but it is not yet ready.

What you can do, is to specify thermal behaviour for each boundary condition. E.g. for BCs of type "WallBC", there is a parameter "heattransfer", which controls the BC of the temperature field.

Regards, Hannes

Hannes,

Thanks for the feedback. I would love to try out any tutorials as I’m just embarking on my dive into OpenFOAM.
