Hi,

I am working on a problem, where there is a heat source at the centre of the 2D box (cube with Z = 1mm). Can anybody please help me define a one-dimensional line heat source (line made by joining two vertices).
Given the size of the box = 400 x 600 x 1 (mm), the heat source of length 50mm is placed at the centre with y=0, z=0.

I learned how to specify a box using boxToCell, but is there a way to specify a 1D line in topoSetDict ? Please help me with the code.
