Darcy with discrete fracture and convection/conduction

Hi,
I am working on a hydro-thermal problem using the Earth science module (Darcy and convection/conduction). My model dimension is 200 m by 1000 m with 0.5-1mm fractures. I want to see temperature variations in matrix and fractures due to fluid flow thru fractures. To avoid a lot of mesh, I hope to use discrete fracuture network method as "fracture porous" in the fluid flow model library of the Earth science module. Is it possible to couple conduction/convection with discrete fracture? Any information will be very helpful for me. Thanks.
