From FEAP Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Short example that shows how to impose boundary conditions in a polar frame (3D). The inner radius is 1.0 and the outer radius is 2.0. The outer boundary has an imposed temperature of 100.0 and the inner boundary has a radial flux of 10.0. Top and bottom are thermally insulated.
