FEBioHeat

The FEBioHeat plugin implements a solver for the heat transfer equation that can be used with febio. It currently supports steady-state and transient heat transfer analyses and assumes Fourier's law for calculating the heat flux.

Supported boundary conditions are:

  • Zero and prescribed temperature
  • Prescribed heat flux
  • Convective heat flux
  • Gap heat flux (enforces continuous heat flux across an interface)

Supported body loads are:

  • Constant heat source
  • Bio-heat

For transient problems, the initial temperature can be prescribed.
