Detailed Description

Fixed heat boundary condition to specify temperature gradient. Input heat source either specified in terms of an absolute power [W], or as a flux [W/m^2].

Patch usage

Property	Description	Required	Default value
heatSource	'power' [W] or 'flux' [W/m^2]	yes
q	heat power or flux field	yes
kappa	inherited from temperatureCoupledBase	yes
kappaName	inherited from temperatureCoupledBase	yes
Qr	name of the radiative flux field	yes
value	initial temperature value	no	calculated
gradient	initial gradient value	no	0.0

Note: If needed, both 'value' and 'gradient' must be defined to be used.

Example usage:

    hotWall
    {
        type            compressible::turbulentHeatFluxTemperature;
        heatSource      flux;
        q               uniform 10;
        kappa           fluidThermo;
        kappaName       none;
        Qr              none;
    }
