Heat conduction problem
Ver: 1
 

DESCRIPTION

With this sub-model, we can calculate a heat conduction problem on a list of topological entities.

If the mesh is 2D, this sub-model is not available.
If the mesh is 3D, this sub-model is available for 2D and 1D topo-objects.

 OPTIONS
 
 -1 
 Upper level menu
1
 Domain of the sub-model
Allows the user to select topological entities on which the current sub-model will be applied.
2
 Anisotropy matrix coefficients
As the conductivity may be anisotropic inside the topological entity, 
the user must enter the coefficients of anisotropy matrix   :
 Cxx, Cxy, Cxz,
           Cyy, Cyz,
                      Czz
By default, the matrix is isotropic. 
3
 Thermal conductivity
the conductivity is also a function of the temperature t :  condu = a + b*t + c*t*t + d*t*t*t
4
 Shell thickness
if the topological entity is 1D, the user must enter the shell area !!
