Hello,

I want to measure the heat generated by frictional energy in Fluid passing through micro channel.

Based on my structure it should be around 10 micro Joule.

To make the case simple, the heat energy can be applied to the fluid and the temperature rise can be measured using Heat Transfer.

If anyone sees this before or know any manuals, please let me know. Thanks.

Check out the “Viscous Heating in a Fluid Damper” example in the Model Gallery (Model ID 8568). It’s a good example illustrating the heat loss in a fluid due to viscous effects.
