Data and Code for Local Thermal-Field Fidelity of a Uniform Heat-Transfer-Coefficient Approximation in Steel-Strip Cooling

This record contains the data, input files, analysis outputs and scripts supporting the article “Local Thermal-Field Fidelity of a Uniform Heat-Transfer-Coefficient Approximation in Steel-Strip Cooling”. The deposited materials include: (1) the archived CFD-derived heat-transfer-coefficient dataset containing 9,072 source records; (2) coordinate-transformation and bounded triangular-interpolation data used to map the source field onto 400 fixed target faces; (3) the spatially resolved and area-weighted uniform HTC boundary data; (4) scripted ANSYS MAPDL transient thermal input files; (5) NodeID-resolved temperature results for the non-uniform and uniform cases; (6) node-wise temperature-difference data and summary statistics; (7) spatial-blocked interpolation self-consistency results, target-face resolution sensitivity data and time-step assessment outputs; and (8) source data and scripts used to generate the manuscript figures. The uniform control was constructed using the target-face area-weighted HTC of 49,270.389795 W m−2 K−1, ensuring equal area-integrated boundary strength between the spatially resolved and uniform cases. The final comparison contains 8,309 matched nodes at 0.020 s. The archive supports reproduction of the boundary-data transfer, MAPDL solid-response calculation, numerical audits and figure generation. It does not support independent reconstruction or validation of the original CFD calculation because the complete native CFD configuration and solver metadata were not retained. The deposited solid model uses a fixed spatial convection field and should not be interpreted as a moving-strip or moving-boundary thermal model. Version: 1.0.0
