Hi!

I want to set up a computation region with two domains, one with the conductive heat transfer in the wall under the liquid, and the other with the conductive as well convective heat transfer in the liquid above the wall. My questions:

1. How can I set up these two domains? In the tutorial case "scalarTransportFoam/pitzDaily", it was only one domain.

2. What does the parameter "DT" mean in the following line
DT DT [0 2 -1 0 0 0 0] 0.01;
from the file ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.1/tutorials/scalarTransportFoam/pitzDaily/constant/transpo rtProperties? If it is kinematic viscosity (with the unit [m^2/s]), how can I introduce two different thermal conductivities?

3. Shall I create a new solver for the heat transfer equation with conductive and convective terms? The flow is laminar and unsteady.

4. Further, I will have a bubble on the wall in the liquid, which grows and detachs because of evaporation (pool boiling). To simulate such a problem, the source terms are needed in the mass-conservation equation, in the heat transfer equation, and in the VOF-equation too. Is it possible to do it with OpenFoam? (two phase, laminar flow)

Many thanks,
