Thermal boundary conditions are applied to faces of the components participating in the simulation by connecting to the boundary condition input on the thermal solver component

A “Temperature” boundary condition fixes the temperature at the chosen boundary at the specified temperature.

A Temperature boundary condition requires two inputs:

• G: the geometry of the surfaces where the temperature is fixed
• T: the magnitude of the temperature

“Thermal Convection” specifies the transfer of heat from a surrounding medium.

A thermal convection boundary condition requires three inputs:

• G: the geometry of the surfaces where the convection is specified.
• C: the coefficient of convection
• Te: the temperature of the surrounding medium

Surface “Thermal or Heat Flux” specifies the heat flow per unit of surface area.

A surface thermal flux requires two inputs:

• G: the geometry of the surfaces where the heat flux is applied
• HF: the magnitude of the heat flux
