Hello,
I'm having some difficulties in setting up a heat transfer model which involves heat transfer through a wall.
I've attached an image of my setup and what I'm trying to do.
I want to model heat transfer from a heat source (meshed wall A) through a powder (Powder B), through Wall B and onto Powder B.
As you can see from the attached image I cannot set up the model to allow heat to transfer through Wall B (which is an imported mesh).
I'm hoping for some guidance on how best to go about achieving heat transfer from Powder A to Powder B whilst keeping the two powders separate. Is it possible to achieve this using existing LIGGGHTS commands or is this a case of using a DEM-FEM coupled approach for this?
Thanks in advance.
Jon

Loop?
Add a loop that will unfix the middle wall, update the temperature given the two sides of the wall, and reapply the mesh?
Do this every so often (eg 100 steps or so).

I would suggest to make wall
I would suggest to make wall B out of small, freezed particles with heat-transfer properties of the real wall
