Hello,

First, it is important to understand what a clump is in Yade [1]. You
will notice that it explains how there are no interactions between clump
members of the same clump. Conduction depends on interactions and thus I
am not surprised that there is no conduction occuring within the clump.

So my question is, what are you trying to model in particular, and why
does the clump need to behave thermally heterogeneous but mechanically
homogeneous? The answer to this question will help us understand if may
there is a better approach than to use clumps.

Thanks,

Robert
