Dear Developers,

I am currently trying to solve a problem that is similar to the 1-D 
Diffusion Coupled example. However, I would like to expand the coefficients 
of the diffusion term so that it will be a face variable. My intention is 
so that each mesh will have different value of diffusion coefficient along 
x-axis.
Here is the code that I wrote,

## Import variables and tools
from fipy import CellVariable, FaceVariable, Grid1D, DiffusionTerm, Viewer
from fipy.terms.transientTerm import TransientTerm
from fipy.tools import numerix

m = Grid1D(nx=100, Lx=5.0)
nx = 100
group = 2
v = CellVariable(name="$\phi$", mesh=m, elementshape=(group,))

X = m.faceCenters[0]

D3 = FaceVariable(mesh=m, value=1.0)
D3.setValue(2.0,where=(2.0<=X))

v.constrain([[0], [1]], m.facesLeft)
v.constrain([[1], [0]], m.facesRight)

eqn = TransientTerm([[1, 0],[0, 1]]) == DiffusionTerm([[[D3, -1],[1, D3]]])

vi = Viewer((v[0], v[1]))

from builtins import range
for t in range(1):
eqn.solve(var=v, dt=1.e-3)
vi.plot()
input("Finished")

In this case I just change one of the diffusion tensor component into a 
facevariable D3. Is there any better way to represent this condition? Thank 
you.

Regards,
Harun
