Problem descriptionThe meshes used for the thermal-electrical element tests are the same as those used for the corresponding heat transfer elements. Boundary conditions:, where T is the temperature, through are arbitrary constants, and x, y, z denote spatial location. , where is the electrical potential, through are arbitrary constants, and x, y, z denote spatial location. Temperature and electrical potentials are prescribed at every node along the boundary of the mesh. Reference solutionFluxes: Since the temperature and electrical potential fields are chosen to be linear, they have constant spatial gradients and, thus, have constant fluxes at every integration point. Results and discussionAll elements yield exact solutions. Input files
