nusseltCS

This is a code stream for Nusselt number written based on foam-extend-4.1.

Mathematical Relationships

$$ Nu = {{h L} \over k} $$

$$ h = {1 \over {L \Delta T}} \int_0^L k \nabla T \ dx $$

Which $Nu$, $h$, $L$, $k$, $\Delta T$ are Nusselt number, heat transfer coefficient, characteristic length, thermal conductivity, and temperature difference, respectively.

Installation
