Heat transfer 1D example

Hello,

I need to run a 1D heat transfer calculation to simulate the heating of
a steel plate. Heat shall be transfered from a hot concrete layer
through a rubber layer to the steel plate.

I found an example called "HeatIntrusion1D" in the ElmerTutorials.pdf
and thought I start with this. But it is not present in the examples files
for GUI / non-GUI.
Could you please upload it for me, maybe attach here.

Do you have other examples that might help me?

Kind regards,
Markus

Found it

ElmerGUI/samples/

But does someone have other examples?

Hi

have a look to the tests at https://github.com/ElmerCSC/elmerfem/tr ... /fem/tests

check all the heat tests. You may find something that suits your case.

To me, it looks simply as 3 differents materials in contact so really difficult to run... just split your 1D line into 3 differents bodies and let's run!

Cheers

Ok, thanks for the hint.

While I was looking for a simple way to run the calculation I came across
Energy2D (http://energy.concord.org/energy2d/).
It is a click'n'play FEM sandbox for educational purposes. You can add
bodies by drawing them. I tried it and it looks like a very handy tool
for first estimations.
Has someone of you used this tool before and can tell me something about it?
