conjugateHeatFoam with OpenFOAM 2.1.1
 
hello,
I would like to use conjugateHeatFoam solver but it doesn't exist in openfoam 2.1.1
so I want to know how to add this solver to openfoam 2.1.1 version?

why not just use the chtMultiRegionFoam, should be able to do whatever you're thinking of that's related to conjugate heat transfer analysis. (unless you have particular reason why you would want to use conjugateHeatFoam)

thank you for your replay
I am using chtMultiRegionFoam but I just want to try conjugateHeatFoam because I think there is some differences between them.
what do you think?

I stumbled upon few threads talking about conjugateHeatFoam before, but am not too familiar with the solver itself.

Figured that if chtMultiRegionFoam serves my purpose well, there's not much point to get my hands dirty and try to port the conjugateHeatFoam to 2.3.x, or even going to the extended-foam branch.
