Add a TransientTerm to the equation and step through the solution with time steps and sweeps if necessary. > 2. The two regions have differing properties (thermal conductivity, mass > density, specific heat) The coefficients can have spatially varying values in FiPy. Define the coefficients as face or cell variables. > 3. The thermal contact is a true thermal contact resistance (a pure > resistance); it has zero thickness, and it has zero heat capacity. I need to see it defined mathematically to understand how to implement it in FiPy, but I'm confident it's possible to define it. -- Daniel Wheeler _______________________________________________ fipy mailing list fipy@nist.gov http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy [ NIST internal ONLY: https://email.nist.gov/mailman/listinfo/fipy ]
