9. ENCLOSURE_SURFACE Namelist

9.1. Overview

9.2. ENCLOSURE_SURFACE Namelist Features

Required/Optional : Required when ENCLOSURE_RADIATION namelists are active.
Single/Multiple Instances: Multiple

9.3. Components

Equation

Description : A unique name for this enclosure surface.
Type : string (31 characters max)
Default : none

Enclosure_Name

Description : The name of the ENCLOSURE_RADIATION namelist that defines the enclosure radiation system to which this surface belongs.
Type : string
Default : none

Face_Block_IDs

Description : A list of face block IDs that define this enclosure surface
Type : a list of up to 32 integers
Default : none
Valid Values: any valid face block ID from the enclosure file
Notes : The surface faces in an enclosure file are divided into blocks. When the genre program from the RadE tool suite is used to create this file, these blocks are automatically generated; each block corresponds to the Exodus II mesh side set used to defined it, and the side set ID is assigned as the face block ID. In this case, then, the IDs that can be specified here will be certain side set IDs from the Truchas Exodus II mesh file.

Emmisivity_Constant

Description : The constant emissivity value for this enclosure surface.
Physical dimensions: dimensionless
Type : real
Default : none
Notes : Either Emissivity_Constant or Emissivity_Function must be specified, but not both.

Emmisivity_Function

Description : The name of a FUNCTION namelist that defines the emissivity function. That function is expected to be a function of (t,x,y,z).
Type : string
Default : none
Notes : Either Emissivity_Function or Emissivity_Constant must be specified, but not both.
