Contours the flow rate normal to the surface.

 

Map3D Thermal-Fluid Flow can be used to simultaneously solve steady state heat/fluid flow coupled to the stress analysis. The program is set up so that the user need only specify the temperature/head boundary conditions, then the coupled thermal/fluid flow stress problem is solved simultaneously. This feature is useful for the simulation of heating or cooling effects and drained or undrained response of soils.
