Hi Foamers,


I just noted, that in case of a thermal resistance (with definition of kappa and thickness) both sides of the baffle need to use exactly the same values. Otherwise the wallHeatFluxes are not the same and the result is wrong.

Is this the desired behavior? From the code it looks like. Wouldn't it be better to interpret the kappa+thickness entries as a per-side statement (so define two resistances, which are summed in the solver)?

If not, then maybe it would be useful to do some kind of checking before the solver starts....just to be less error prone.


Best regards,
Ulf
