Dear all,

I use yadedaily:
Yade 20210909-5909~5b11526~focal1
Using python version: 3.8.10 (default, Jun 2 2021, 10:49:15)
[GCC 9.4.0]
Ubuntu 20.04

Since my ultimate goal is to achieve high-temperature rock testing, I decided to apply high-temperature conditions to the sample first.However,in the process of my attempts, there are several questions related to FlowEngine and ThermalEngine that confused me.
1.Since the purpose of my script is to achieve high temperature conditions, I don’t think I need to use FlowEngine.But when I run the script,an error message appears: 'the core has been dumped'(Ps:Chinese on my system).When I added FlowEngine, this error disappeared. Does it mean that ThermalEngine cannot be used alone?
2.As mentioned above, if two engines must be used together, then what is the difference between FlowEngine.thermalBndCondValue and ThermalEngine.thermalBndCondValue?
3.The script I ended up running is as follows.Unfortunately, it was not as successful as I expected.I found that the body.state.temp=Nan.What's the problem?
