Gianluca Argentini

Dear Warren, in the case of static configurations, numerical simulations using a fixed (positive or negative) temperature on boundaries can give realistic results; but in the case of dynamic/transient configurations, accurate boundary conditions depending on models should be declared for avoiding unrealistic outputs.

Warren Martis

Thank you. Mine is a dynamics configuration. I have defined temperature in pre defined field. However I cannot observe any shrinkage effects. Do you have any insights regarding this?
