Am I correct in using volumetric properties when simulating the heat diffusion equation with FiPy?
I am solving the transient heat diffusion equation with an explicit source term.
Where:
I represent this in FiPy as follows:
eq = TransientTerm(C) == DiffusionTerm(k) + source
If the units are consistent between terms, then FiPy doesn't care.
Yes, in [examples.diffusion.mesh1D
](https://pages.nist.gov/fipy/en/latest/generated/examples.diffusion.mesh1D.html#module-examples.diffusion.mesh1D), Cp is specific heat capacity and rho is mass density.
