Indoor Wall - [source code]

Set an indoor wall temperature (°C). Wire a room surface to give just that surface its own temperature patch; leave it empty for a single case-wide wall temperature.

Input

Name Nickname Description Type
Temperature T Wall temperature (°C). Number
Surface S Optional room surface to give this temperature. Must be part of the room Brep's shell; leave empty to set one case-wide wall temperature instead. Brep
Name N Optional patch name (letters/digits/underscore). Defaults to a positional name. Text
Power P Optional heat load in WATTS this surface emits, instead of a fixed temperature — the nameplate figure for an occupant (~100 W) or a luminaire. OpenFOAM spreads the total over the surface's meshed area, so the wattage stays right however finely it meshes. When set, Temperature is ignored for this wall. A CLOSED Brep (a person, a cabinet) becomes an obstacle carved out of the room with the load on its skin. Number
