A brief overview of convection (heat transfer coefficient) boundary conditions in CFD. Convection boundary conditions are available in the majority of mainstream CFD codes (ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS CFX, OpenFOAM, Star CCM etc) and are useful for heat transfer analysis. The following topics are covered in the video:
1) 01:25 What is a convection boundary condition?
2) 09:49 How does a convection boundary condition work?
3) 16:35 How do you calculate the external heat transfer coefficient?
4) 28:14 What is the difference between the internal heat transfer coefficient and the external heat transfer coefficient?

An introduction to Momentum Weighted Interpolation (often referred to as Rhie & Chow Interpolation), a method which is used by many modern CFD codes to address chequerboard oscillations in pressure-based solvers which use a collocated variable arrangement. This talk is Part 1 of a 3 Part lecture series. The focus of Part 1 is understanding chequerboard oscillations and why they can occur in CFD solvers that use a collocated variable arrangement.
Timestamps:
1) 02:34 A recap of the finite volume method and the discretisation of the momentum equation
2) 23:44 What are chequerboard oscillations?
3) 41:50 What are the potential options for removing these oscillations?
