28. The boundary conditions for a system with inhomogeneous temperature are discussed in Ref.. Different boundary conditions, namely, P1 (0) = P2 (L) and P1 (L/2) = P2 (L/2), are often used in the literature. However, these boundary conditions are not consistent with the physical system under consideration. Indeed, the solution obtained with these boundary conditions disagrees with the results of our molecular dynamics simulation both qualitatively and quantitatively.
