SURFACECONVECTIONALGORITHM:OUTSIDE:ADAPTIVEMODELSELECTIONS

Options to change the individual convection model equations for dynamic selection when using AdaptiveConvectiongAlgorithm This object is only needed to make changes to the default model selections for any or all of the surface categories. This object is for the outside face, the side of the surface facing away from the thermal zone.
