I am using Abaqus to model natural convection from a vertical plate.
I'm using laminar flow. I used the thermal energy model for the heat transfer, ignoring viscous dissipation. No slip walls, specified wall temperature 325K, bulk fluid temperature specified in the domain initialisation as 300K. The density and velocity look ok, it seems to be doing what I expected and this is probably really stupid, but I can't figure out how to get a value for the heat transfer coefficient out of Post.
I can find wall heat transfer coefficient but that would be purely conduction because of the no-slip condition.
Can anyone help me with how to get the value I need out of Post, please?
Thank you
