fvOptions -call value from different region
 
Hello everybody,

I'm working on heatTransfer simulations in which I want to define the heater-power depending on a sensor temperature that is measured in a different region.

(Working with chtMultiRegionFoam and the codedSource in fvOptions...)

Therefore I'm calculating the mean-temperature in the sensor but I'm not able to call this value in the heater-region.

If the sensor is placed inside the heater-domain, than everything is working perfectly.

Is there a possibility to call such a value or to transfer it into other region, or do I have to create an output-file?

Thanks you!
Tobi
