With FEniCS one can easily construct the geometry by subtracting a circle from a square and mesh the geometry automatically with mshr
. I don't think Firedrake has anything like mshr
, since it focuses on it's utility as a FEM library and lets you import meshes from other software.
So the first task would be to create a procedure for generating meshes with different uniform refinements, perhaps by using fenics.mshr
, or with any other tool.

The current enthalpy-porosity model should be enough for a nice qualitative result. A nice quantitative result, and perhaps easier set up in general, would first require phase-dependent heat capacity and thermal conductivity (for which we have issue #37).
This would be our first demonstration of an interesting geometry.
