class SolidMedium[source]#

Bases: AbstractHeatMedium

Solid medium for heat simulations.

Parameters:

  • name (Optional[str] = None) – Optional unique name for medium.

  • capacity (Optional[PositiveFloat] = None) – [units = J/(kg*K)]. Specific heat capacity in unit of J/(kg*K).

  • conductivity (PositiveFloat) – [units = W/(um*K)]. Thermal conductivity of material in units of W/(um*K).

  • density (Optional[PositiveFloat] = None) – [units = kg/um^3]. Mass density of material in units of kg/um^3.

Example

>>> solid = SolidMedium(
...     capacity=2,
...     conductivity=3,
