The setup for this tutorial is similar to the [flow over a heated plate](https://www.precice.org/tutorials-flow-over-heated-plate.html). In this case we additionally partition the OpenFOAM fluid to create a three-way coupling using CHT (conjugate heat transfer) and FF (fluid-fluid coupling).

The test case is two-dimensional and uses a serial-implicit coupling with Quasi-Newton acceleration for the fluid-fluid coupling. The CHT coupling between the solid and the fluid2 participant is changed to serial-explicit because it does not make sense numerically to have multiple serial-implicit schemes. (see also [here](https://precice.org/configuration-coupling-multi.html))

Note that it is usually recommended using the fully implicit parallel `coupling-scheme:multi` with more than two participants. (learn more about this [here](https://precice.org/configuration-coupling-multi.html)). However, in this basic example, it is sufficient to do the CHT coupling explicitly.

The flow partitioning is done with the fluid-fluid module of the [preCICE OpenFOAM adapter](https://www.precice.org/adapter-openfoam-overview.html). Because we use buoyantPimpleFoam we have to tell the adapter that the coupled pressure has the name `p_rgh`. The temperature is coupled at the fluid-solid interface by exchanging *Temperature* and *Heat-Flux*, at the fluid-fluid interface it is *FlowTemperature* and *FlowTemperatureGradient*. Note the difference in naming: *Temperature* is used for conjugate heat transfer and *FlowTemperature* for fluid-fluid coupling.

We observe that the velocity and pressure values are smooth across the interface. Going through different time steps, we can also see how our inlet-outlet boundary conditions accurately changed behavior when the recirculation travelled inside the coupling interface.

However, if we look closely we can observe that the values around the interface don't match the monolithic solution perfectly:

It is possible to reduce the observed error by using a finer mesh around the interface. But keep in mind, that a finer mesh might require finer time steps as well!
