I am trying to simulate the transient heat analysis, but I am getting an error, 'An error occurred inside the SOLVER module: Enclosure type Perfect was incorrectly chosen in some Surface to Surface Radiation objects'.
The initial temperatures are 1400 C, and 300 C for different parts. Had heat flux as heating source and radiation data. Since inside the chamber is vacuum, so I choose surface to surface radiation and chose enclosure type as perfect. I am not sure, why there is an error. Please guide.

Hi
Will you please try to open the solver output file and let me what is the actual error message there? Is there any shell body in the model?
Best Regards,

Hi
if your model includes a shell body then apply the radiation boundary condition individually for the shell bodies. Try to run with the same enclosure number and the "close" enclosure type. I believe there's a possibility that some bodies are not covered by the radiation boundary condition enclosure, which explains why this error is occurring. Kindly verify this.
Secondly, I believe there is some leakage in the enclosure type, which is the reason you are receiving the error. if you are still unable to solve the problem even after adding all the bodies in the enclosure. The enclosure type assing "open" can be used to run it. When using the "open" enclosure type, there might be a possibility that some heat will seep into the surroundings, however, it will not affect your analysis.
Best Regards,

There are no shell bodies. I felt there might be some leakage so I changed the heat shield with no space as shown in image below. I did try to run the simulation with open condition but it is same error. I noticed in the error it is mentionig about, 'no space tempertaure', how can that be specified?
*** ERROR *** CP = 106.672 TIME= 13:52:20
No Space Temperature or Space Node specified for open Enclosure 1.To run with eclosure type as open. Temperature is rising upto ~1450 degree celcius from 1400 degree celcius but starts decreasing after that. It should reach about 3300 degree celcius.

Hi Rishi,
Thanks for your patience.As I explained, the issue is due to the lack of a properly defined or captured radiation surface in the boundary conditions. Since there are inclined plates, bodies outside the close enclosure also participate in radiation heat transfer, which might create an issue in the calculation of view factors.
It’s crucial to remember that view factors are used to calculate radiation exchange between surfaces. They represent the fraction of radiation leaving one surface that reaches another.
I would suggest splitting the body that is outside the enclosure which will help you to apply the radiation boundary condition only to the surfaces within the enclosure. I believe this will help you to resolve the issue.
Note:- After following the above procedure, you can refine the mesh.
Best Regards,
Sampat -

I am getting an error with body split (image attached), and when I tried the face split, the face splitted into 4 parts. There is no body outside the enclosure. There is a build tray, on which a plate is placed on and on that plate there is a layer, which is getting heated. The process is in the vaccum. The heat shield is there (top structure) to prevent the heat loss. Radiation from heat shield is also playing a role in heating the layer. Can we connect over zoom?
