30.26. Energy Balance

For a nonisothermal simulation, Ansys Polyflow automatically integrates all quantities related to energy:

  • Total viscous and wall friction heating in the flow domain

  • Total heat source

  • Heat flux (Fourier heat flux) when the temperature is imposed

  • Total Joule effect

  • Convected heat along a boundary

along all boundary sets, so you do not need to define postprocessor sub-tasks for them. Results are displayed as numerical values in the Ansys Polyflow listing file.
