Dear all, <\/p>\n

I wanted to test a capability of a facade system to transfer heat from the outside to the inner side.<\/p>\n

Like this:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, when I try to use convection as the only boundary condition as the outer part and leave the other side empty without boundary condition, the simulation won’t work (the system says error in the boundary condition). <\/p>\n

The issue is, when we put the boundary condition (i.e. convection), we have to fill the ambient temperature of that particular boundary condition. So we have to ‘know’ the temperature on the outer and inner side of the facade system.<\/p>\n

However, I do not want to fill the ambient temperature on the other side because the temperature on the other side of the facade is unknown. That is why I wanted to do this simulation, to see the temperature of the other side of the system. <\/p>\n

Since I am new to this software, I was wondering if it is possible to do that?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank you<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Regards,<\/p>\n
