I am very new to FlexPDE so my question maybe trivial.
I want to apply FlexPDE for solving two phenomena in one problem, (1) Heat condution in Region 1 with heat source, and (2) Fluid flow in Region 2 w/o heat source. Region 1 and 2 have interfaces where heat transfer can occurs (convection). Is is possible to do this modelling with FlexPDE ? If yes, hints or sample scripts are welcome.

Thanks,

Liem

FlexPDE assumes that all variables exist and have valid defining equations everywhere in the domain. But you can have different values for parameters in different regions, effectively turning on or off the components of the PDE.

In version 4.1 and later you can specify discontinuities at material interfaces using the JUMP command (see JUMP in the Help Index and the examples in "Samples | Misc | Discontinuous_Variables").

Thank you for your hints.
I will try to build the model with Version 4.1 based on the examples you indicated.

Liem.
