assign_power_law_resistance#

Icepak.assign_power_law_resistance(objects, boundary_name=None, total_power='0W', fluid='air', laminar=False, power_law_constant=1, power_law_exponent=1)[source]#

Assign resistance boundary condition prescribing a power law.

Parameters:

objectslist or str: A list of objects to which the resistance condition will be assigned. It can be a single object (a string) or multiple objects specified as a list.
boundary_namestr, optional: The name of the boundary object that will be created. If not provided, a unique name is generated. The default is None.
total_powerstr, float, or dict or BoundaryDictionary, optional: The total power transferred to the fluid through the resistance volume. It is specified as a string with a value and unit or a float where the default unit "W" is used. Assign a transient condition using the result of a function with the create_*_transient_assignment pattern. The default is "0W".
fluidstr, optional: Material of the volume to assign the resistance to. The default is "air".
laminarbool, optional: Whether the flow inside the volume must be treated as laminar or not. Default is False.
power_law_constantstr or float, optional: Specifies the coefficient in the power law equation for pressure loss. Default is 1.
power_law_exponentstr or float, optional: Specifies the exponent value in the power law equation for pressure loss calculation. Default is 1.

Returns:

ansys.aedt.core.modules.boundary.BoundaryObject: Boundary object when successful or None when failed.
