Heat convection (film.f)

This subroutine is used for nonuniform convective heat flux, characterized by distributed load labels of the form FxNUy, cf *FILM. The load label can be up to 20 characters long. In particular, y can be used to distinguish different nonuniform film patterns. The header and variable description is as follows:

          subroutine film(h,sink,temp,kstep,kinc,time,noel,npt,
         &  coords,jltyp,field,nfield,loadtype,node,area,vold)
    !
    !     user subroutine film
    !

    !     INPUT:
    !
    !     sink               most recent sink temperature
    !     temp               current temperature value
    !     kstep              step number
    !     kinc               increment number
    !     time(1)            current step time
    !     time(2)            current total time
    !     noel               element number
    !     npt                integration point number
    !     coords(1..3)       global coordinates of the integration point
