[Getdp] Problem with induction heat geometry

Sun Feb 3 15:02:47 CET 2013

Hi, I've updated indheat.pro at
http://onelab.info/wiki/Magnetodynamics_with_cohomology_conditions
with coupled thermal analysis.
It first solves the time harmonic eddy currents in the workpiece and
then uses the heat generated by them as heat source for a transient
heat conduction problem. As boundary conditions, there are both
convection and radiation heat transfer terms present. To solve it, run
the command

getdp indheat.pro -solve TheDyn -pos TheDyn
