Transport properties for solids.
This class implements a simple model for the diffusion coefficients and
the thermal conductivity of a solid. The diffusion coefficients have
modified Arrhenius form, and the thermal conductivity is constant.
All parameters are user-specified, not computed from a physical model.
Examples:
>>> tr = SolidTransport(solid_phase)
>>> tr.setThermalConductivity(0.5) # W/m/K
>>> tr.setDiffCoeff(species = "OxygenIon", A = 2.0, n = 0.0, E = 700.0)
Note that the diffusion coefficient is computed from D = A * T^n *
exp(-E/t) in m^2/s. Diffusion coefficients for unspecified species are
set to zero.
