Quantity—Thermal Analyses
In defining the quantity of the measure, you indicate the type of information you want Creo Simulate to measure, as follows:
• Interface—enables you to measure the total power across the interface and also the maximum heat flux through the thermal resistance interface.
 |
You can define the Interface quantity if you have created any interface in your model.
|
• Temperature—enables you to measure the temperature of your model.
• Heat Flux—enables you to measure the transfer of heat for your model in terms of either magnitude or component direction.
• Temperature Gradient—enables you to measure the change in temperature over your model in terms of either magnitude or component direction.
• Driven Parameter—enables you to tie a measure to a dependent Creo Parametric parameter. For information on this quantity, see Parameter-Based Measures.
• Time—enables you to determine the time of first or last occurrence of a measure's value being greater or less than a specified value during a dynamic time analysis.
• Computed Measure—enables you to define your own algebraic expression for the measure.
• Heat Transfer Rate—enables you to determine the total rate of heat transferred through an imaginary cut in your model.
