In the
visco_plastic
anddiffusion_dislocation
models the thermal diffusivity is specified as an input file parameter instead of the thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity is then calculated from the thermal diffusivity, density and heat capacity.This leads to an inconsistency when set
Temperature equation = reference density profile
.The same inconsistency is present in any heating model that uses the material model density output. @gassmoeller @jdannberg - I was planning to use the structure to enforce that the heating models use the correct density. Any objections before I do this in another commit?
Thanks and credit to Phillip Heron and Jeroen van Hunen for identifying an issue by running the
Blankenbach
benchmarks with these two material models!
