Power Inverter with Conjugate Heat Transfer: Exercise 6—Analyzing Results

This exercise describes how the results are analyzed during and after the simulation. To hide CAD surfaces (not the fluid domain), switch between

CAD Bodies and

Flow Analysis Bodies.

Viewing the Pressure Contours on a Boundary

Temperature: [K] : Heat

370.0

300.0

1. Select Domains.

2. In the

Turn on/off view properties list, click

Hide all surfaces,

Hide all grids, and

Hide all outlines.

3. Under Boundary Conditions, Interface, select all entities with a name beginning with POWERINVERTER_1_FLUID, PANEL_FAN_/POWERINVERTER_1_FLUID, and PANEL_SOCKET_/POWERINVERTER_1_FLUID.

4. In the Properties panel, View tab, for Surface, set values for the options as listed below:

◦ Keep drawing—Yes

◦ Grid—No

◦ Outline—No

◦ Variable—Temperature: [K] : Heat

◦ Min—300

◦ Max—370

Plotting the Temperature at the Outlet Boundary

1. In the Flow Analysis Tree, click Boundary Conditions > General Boundaries.

2. Select BC_00001.

3. Click

XYPlot. A new entity xyplot1 appears in the Flow Analysis Tree under Results > XY Plots

4. Click xyplot1.

5. In the Properties panel, View tab, for Surface, set Variable to Temperature.

6. Click

Stop and

Run in the Run group, if needed.
