    Description :
    _____________

    The SOURCE operator enables the user to impose a volumetric
 source of heat in one or several parts of a structure.

    Contents :
    __________


    MODE1     : modeled structure (MODELE type)

    CAR1      : structure geometrical properties
                (MCHAML type, CARACTERISTIQUES subtype). This
                datum can only be used for the shell elements
                and the bar element
                
    VAL1      : value of the volumetric source (FLOTTANT type)

    GEO1      : part of the structure where the source is 
                imposed (MAILLAGE type)

    CHPO2     : one-component field for solids and
                3-components field for shells ,named 
                SINF SMOY and SSUP  containing values
                of the sources  at inner skin, mid-thickness
                and outer skin
                (CHPOINT type)

    CHAM1    :  one-component element field for  solids and
                3-components element field for shells ,named 
                SINF SMOY and SSUP  containing  values of the 
                sources  at  inner skin, mid-thickness and  
                outer skin
               
    CHPO1     : equivalent nodal flows (CHPOINT type) components
               Q for solid elements  QINF ,Q, QSUP for shells.

      WARNING : If the used MODELE is larger than the area where the
 source is defined by field CHPO2  (or nodes of mesh GEO1 ) then 
 external boundary elements will support also a source. We advise 
 you to give to the operator a reduction of the MODELE to the strictly 
 concerned elements.
