Thermal region: about

What we can simulate?

With regions it is possible to describe:

• material media such as:

  • conducting material media (thermal conductivity k) with possibly a heat source (imposed value of thermal flux)

• boundary conditions of the following types:
  • heat transfer (on faces)
  • imposed temperature (on faces or lines)
  • insulated face (adiabatic boundary)

3D specificity

In 3D problems, it is also possible to describe thin conducting regions with thermal exchanges on both faces.
