The Boundary Details and Fluid Values tabs for a boundary condition object contain settings that specify the values, fluxes, and transfer coefficients of Additional Variables at the boundary condition location. These tabs are accessible, when applicable, by editing a boundary condition object.
The Additional Variables that require specification are those that have been applied to the domain (to which the boundary condition belongs) in a form other than an algebraic equation.
For single phase flow, the Additional Variable settings are on the Boundary Details tab. For multiphase flow, the Additional Variable settings for homogeneous Additional Variables are on the Boundary Details tab and those for fluid-specific Additional Variables are either on the Boundary Details tab or the Fluid Values tab.
The types of boundary conditions that may allow the specification of Additional Variables are:
InletOpeningWallOutlet
This list box is used to select an Additional Variable in order to set the details of its boundary condition specification.
Zero FluxValueFlux inThis option is applicable for Wall boundary conditions and, for Poisson and Diffusive transport models, Inlet boundary conditions.
Transfer CoefficientWall Flux InThis option is applicable for multiphase flow only.
Wall Transfer CoefficientThis option is applicable for multiphase flow only.
