LinearFVEnthalpyVolumetricHeatTransfer

This object adds the volumetric fluid-solid heat transfer term for linear finite volume formulations where the solved variable is the specific enthalpy. This kernel cannot be used when the solved variable is the temperature.

For the current-side equation it contributes

where is the volumetric heat transfer coefficient "h_solid_fluid", and and are the temperatures of the phase whose equation this kernel acts on and of the other phase, selected with "is_solid". The current-side temperature is linearized about the latest auxiliary temperature as

Here is the specific enthalpy of the current phase, which is the solved variable, is the specific heat "cp", and superscripts and denote the previous and the new iterate.

This yields the matrix contribution

and the right-hand side contribution

If the auxiliary temperature satisfies the constant specific heat relation , then this reduces exactly to the simpler form .

This kernel is useful for porous-medium fluid and solid enthalpy equations that use auxiliary temperature variables for coupling and boundary data.
