Options

The following options are available to configure and perform a finite element analysis of a part.

:DA_TABULAR - when set to ON, temperature-dependent convections can be entered.
:STUDY - specifies the associated study for the convection.
:NAME - specifies the name of the convection to create.
:REF_ELEM - specifies the part to apply the convection value.
:AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE - specifies a value for the ambient temperature.
:TEMPERATURE - specifies the part temperature.
:TEMP_INCREMENT - specifies the temperature increments.
:VALUE - specifies a heat generation value to be applied to the part.
:FACTOR - specifies the incremental factor to be used.
:TOTAL-VALUE - specifies a total value to be applied to the part.
:DELETE_ENTRY - deletes an entry.
:SET_ENTRY - sets an entry in the table.
:EVALUATE - evaluates the heatflow using the temperature value and the factor.
:NEXT - accepts the parameters you have defined and allows you to define the next parameter to apply.

When to use

Use this action to study the transfer of heat (part to ambient environment or, ambient environment to part).
