ThermalFluxDensity¶

Type:	1-Tensor, or section
Range:	[v_1, …, v_3]
Default:	-/-
Appearance:	optional

Specifies a thermal flux density $\VField{q},$ also called heat flux density. Units are watts per square meter, $\units{W/m^2}.$

A constant thermal flux density can be defined by assigning a 3-vector:

# define a constant thermal flux density
ThermalFluxDensity = [ ..., ..., ...]

For more general cases, a thermal flux density field may be given as a section in order to deal with space, time, and parameter dependent definitions:

# define a thermal flux density field as a section
ThermalFluxDensity {
  Constant {...}
  Python {...}
  ...
}

Field definitions within this section are summed up. Consult the subsequent sections to see which types of field definitions are allowed.
