[Nek5000-users] Add a forcing term on scalar equation

Thanks. 
So I just used the "USERQ" to implement the forcing term to scalar filed explicitly.
 
In the next step, I want to coupled the scalar field to Navier-Stokes equation using a forcing term.
In this case, the forcing term is a function of scalar field and I would like to implement it implicitly.
As far as I know, if I used USERF, the scheme is explicit. So how can I add a forcing term to N-S equation implicitly!?

It's actually evaluated explicitly, so you shold be ok.
