# HeatTrans
[](https://github.com/c3m-labs/HeatTrans/releases)
[](http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html)
HeatTrans is a [Mathematica](http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/) package for non-stationary heat transfer simulation in 2D.
It is using [AceFEM](http://symech.fgg.uni-lj.si/) framework for finite element method capabilities.
## Installation
The following description is for people who just want to use the package functionality and are not interested in package development.
To use _HeatTrans_ package you need Mathematica version 11.1 or later and
AceFEM package, version 6.912 or later (get [trial](http://symech.fgg.uni-lj.si/Download.htm) version).
Supported operating systems are 64-bit Windows, MacOS and Linux.
_HeatTrans_ package is released in the `.paclet` file format, which contains code, documentation and other necessary resources.
Download `.paclet` file the latest version from the repository ["releases"](https://github.com/c3m-labs/HeatTrans/releases) page
to your computer and install it by evaluating the following command in the Mathematica:
```mathematica
(* This built-in package is usually loaded automatically at kernel startup. *)
Needs["PacletManager`"]
(* Path to .paclet file downloaded from repository "releases" page. *)
PacletInstall["full/path/to/HeatTrans-X.Y.Z.paclet"]
```
This will permanently install the _HeatTrans_ package to `$UserBasePacletsDirectory`.
To update the documentation it may be necessary to restart Mathematica.
Mathematica will always use the latest installed version of package and all installed versions
can be enumerated by evaluating `PacletFind["HeatTrans"]`.
You can get more detailed information about the package with `PacletInformation["HeatTrans"]`.
All versions can be uninstalled with:
```mathematica
PacletUninstall["HeatTrans"]
```
## Usage
After you have installed the package, load it to Mathematica session with `Get`.
Then you can, for example, calculate temperature distribution over triangular steel bar after 60 seconds
using the main function `HeatTransfer`.
```mathematica
Get["HeatTrans`"]
region = Triangle[{{0,0},{1,1},{2,0}}/100];
endTime = 60;
material = <|"Conductivity" -> 55, "Density" -> 7800, "SpecificHeat" -> 470|>;
(* InterpolatingFunction[...] object is returned. *)
result = HeatTransfer[region, endTime, material]
Plot3D[
result[endTime, x, y],
Element[{x, y}, result["ElementMesh"] ],
ColorFunction -> "TemperatureMap",
AspectRatio -> Automatic,
Boxed -> False,
PlotRange -> All
]
```
To access the documentation, open the notebook interface help viewer and search for _HeatTrans_.
## Contributing and feedback
The main purpose of _HeatTrans_ package is to test and demonstrate good software development
[practices](https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.1001745) using Mathematica and AceFEM framework.
Therefore, there is less focus on building more advanced FEM modelling capabilities.
Please use this repository [issues](https://github.com/c3m-labs/HeatTrans/issues) page to submit bugs or feature ideas. If you find this package useful, feel free to send us feedback by email to `github` at `c3m.si`.
Pull requests to this repository are welcome.
Guidelines on how to build `.paclet` file from the source code can be found in [CONTRIBUTING.md]( CONTRIBUTING.md ) file.
