# Thermal-Fluid Analysis

## Purpose

Develop decision-ready thermal-fluid analysis without separating numerical output from physical meaning. State what is measured, simulated, derived, assumed, or inferred; retain units, sign conventions, property states, system boundaries, and applicability limits.

## Analysis Workflow

1. Define the system: geometry, working fluid, operating regime, boundary conditions, performance metrics, and constraints.
2. Establish the physical model: governing balances, material properties and their evaluation state, dimensionless groups, competing mechanisms, and expected limiting behavior.
3. Select evidence: standards, handbooks, peer-reviewed work, calibrated measurements, validated CFD, or correlations inside their stated range.
4. Test credibility: dimensional consistency, conservation, order of magnitude, limiting cases, uncertainty/sensitivity, and an independent analytical or empirical check where possible.
5. Conclude by mechanism and tradeoff: performance, pressure drop or pumping power, manufacturability, reliability, cost, safety, scaling, and residual risk.
