Interpolation for Thermal Conductivity

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I am currently modeling heat transfer through a packed bed with a varying thermal conductivity term. I am trying to define a table (interpolation) for temperature dependent thermal conductivity which needs to be applied across the whole model.
I have defined it under model definitions as Eff_Therm and want to recall it in a material's thermal conductivity property, I have defined it as Eff_Therm(T/[1/K]) as this is the only format it will allow. However this gives results which are completely unreasonable. Could any one please help me on how I correctly call the table?

Kind regards

Chris
