Greetings, dear Atena users and developers.
When solving a problem on thermal conductivity and hydration of massive concrete structures, I discovered a significant influence of the Free Water Saturation parameter on temperature. How do you set this parameter in your problems? Is it acceptable to set it equal to the water content of 1 m³ of concrete mix?
Also, how does the program determine the water content in young concrete? Changing the Qw pot parameter doesn't change the problem results (my model uses Fixed Moisture Dof).
Thank you.
