Hi, 
I'm Michelangelo, an Italian post-doc, and I recently discovered FIPY. 
I would like to develop a 3D thermal/geophysical model of asteroids by using 
FIPY. My idea is to solve  simultaneously the heat equation (with the source 
term represented by the radionuclides) and the advection equation (which 
controls the migration of metals through the silicatic matrix). I have already 
developed a 1D finite difference method by using Python, but I'd like to move 
on to making a 3D model and Fipy sounds great.
Do you suggest me some examples to follow and a way to incorporate a radiation 
boundary condition at the surface? 

Thanks in advance,
Michelangelo
