code_saturne User's Forum

Hello,

I was wondering if the units in the user laws from subroutines in fortran were all International System ?

For exemple, if I extract a temperature for a boussinesq approximation, will it always be in Kelvins or °C or will it be in my chosen unit ?

Regards,

Alec

Okay sorry I finally found an answer in the technical manual.

I also have another question for CS 3.0.

In the gui, when defining a heat flux boundary condition, is the unit actually W/m2 ? or is it W and CS will compute the surfacic heat flux according to the surface of the boundary faces selected ?

So far I supposed that it was always defined in W/m2 as indicated in other parts of the forum but I have a doubt.

Best regards,

Alec

Hello Alec,

The units for heat flux are W/m^2.
