Good afternoon, I am doing the solar radiation tutorial in HyperWorks CFD, but I want to replicate it in SimLab with the help of its respective tutorial, to remove the unit confusion.

The solar radiation tutorial in HyperWorks:
https://2021.help.altair.com/2021/hwsolvers/acusolve/topics/tutorials/acu/acu_3201_intro_cfd_r.htm#acu_3201_intro_cfd_r

The solar radiation tutorial in SimLab:
https://2021.help.altair.com/2021/hwsolvers/acusolve/topics/tutorials/acu/acu_3201_intro_sl_r.htm

My question is:
When analyzing the results, we need the solar heat flux, which is indicated in HyperWorks CFD and we know how to obtain it, but when we replicate it in SimLab, it is not indicated in the respective tutorial. How do we get the solar heat flux in SimLab?.

Thanks

    Hi Jorge,

    sorry that you could not get an Answer yet. Probably this topic should  better be asked in our CFD-AcuSolve forum, where you could have more chance of finding information regarding this.

    Thanks
