ADHeatStructureHeatSource
Adds a heat source term for the energy equation
The equation term modeled by this kernel is:
where power
is a scalar variable set using the "total_power" parameter, power shape
is function set using the "power_shape_function" parameter, scale
is a controllable scaling factor and is the number of heat structures modeled.
This kernel offers several options (scalar, scalar variable, function) to specify the value of the power. To use only one, set all the others to 1
.
If the function spatial shape is not integrated exactly by the quadrature, specifying the "power_shape_integral_pp" parameter will ensure that power is conserved.
In THM, most kernels are added automatically by components. This kernel is created by the HeatSourceFromTotalPower component which is used to add heat sources to heat structures.
