HeatConductionCG
This Physics object implements the heat conduction equation over a volumetric domain using a continuous Galerkin finite element discretization.
It creates the kernels for each term of the equation:
the conduction term using ADHeatConduction
the time derivative of the energy term using ADHeatConductionTimeDerivative if in a transient solve
the heat source term using ADCoupledForce if specified
The boundary conditions are created with:
a FunctorNeumannBC for heat flux boundary conditions
a FunctorDirichletBC for fixed temperature boundary conditions
A boundary condition object is created for each boundary, except if the same arguments can be used across all boundaries in which case a single object is created and restricted to the union of boundaries.
