Hi all,

I am attempting to simulate a heat conduction problem in a simple porous
medium using macro-micro coupling via preCICE. Currently, I am implementing
the macro problem to be coupled with an existing micro problem, basing my
code on the existing implementation in dumux-heat (which solves a simple
heat conduction problem as a OnePNI problem with boundary and initial
conditions set in such a way that there is no flow, leaving only the heat
problem).

The micro problem communicates the porosity and a potentially anisotropic
thermal conductivity tensor as inputs to the macro problem. I now need to
incorporate these into my DuMuX macro simulation, and set them locally for
each subcontrolvolume.

>From what I have understood (and please correct me), this is pretty
straightforward for the porosity, and can be done by overloading
`template<class ElementSolution>
Scalar porosity (const Element& element, const SubControlVolume& scv, const
ElementSolution& elemSol) const{}`
in spatialparams.hh.

However, I have not yet found any way to incorporate a local, scv-specific
conductivity, much less a local conductivity tensor in DuMux. The only
thing coming up seem to be the two parameters SolidThermalConductivity and
LiquidThermalConductivity, but these are static, even in my case. Any
suggestions on how to achieve this with DuMuX?

I'd be thankful for any and all ideas,
Best regards,
Helena Kschidock
