2D axisymmetric verification cases for Elmer FEM:
Both cases are solved numerically and analytically, deviations are <1%.
Additional verification cases (work in progress):
- Heat conduction and radiation with temperature-dependent emissivity
- Impedance boundary condition
- Lorentz forces
The project is developed and maintained by the Model experiments group at the Leibniz Institute for Crystal Growth (IKZ).
