Most basic functionality: Check that it gives the correct result on a box with a hot and an opposite cold side. In that case, the thermal loss is (conductivity in W/mK) * (temperature gradient in K/m) * (cross section area in m^2) and TRfem gives the same value if the tet mesh is not wrong. |

Most basic functionality: Check that the temperature gradient is ten times as high in a material (plastic) with one tenth the conductivity of the other (steel), as it should be. Gives the same result as the 1D method (Glaser's method). |

The I-beam example with plastic insulation, from the paper, made with the example tet mesh component. That tet mesh is not a good finite element mesh, so the result is not very accurate. |
