[Nek5000-users] Surface source term

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

Dear NEKs,

                I am trying to add a surface source term in the energy equation on a certain surface of my 2D domain.

The way I did was to put into userq the following expression:

qvol = qref*area(ix,1,ifc,iel)/bm1(ix,iy,iz,iel)

The case seems to work fine but I would like to ask you just a confirmation that the way I did is correct (maybe there are some mathematical/physical reasons why that way is wrong).

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Andreas.
