Issue With Specifying Boundary Conditions at Interfaces

I am working on a simple heat transfer model. Everything is being modeled as a solid. However, I seem to only be able to properly apply boundary conditions to boundaries that are not interfaces. When I apply boundary conditions to a boundary that is also part of an interface, the boundary condition doesn't actually have any effect on my model's solution. ie: I set it to have a certain heat flux or static temperature, but it simply doesn't have that effect (or any effect for that matter) once I run the simulation.
Am I missing something fundamental here? I can also apply interface conditions to interfaces successfully but the only options there are Heat Flux and Heat Source, whereas I would like to apply a constant temperature to a shared boundary. Thanks, Jonathan edit: I changed the physics region for the water to be liquid instead of solid. Now the boundary conditions between the solid/liquid works whereas before when it was a solid/solid boundary it did not. Attachment 35358 Update: Thanks for you reply LuckyTran, that explanation helped quite a bit. Last edited by Jayhawk; December 2, 2014 at 11:30. |
