Ignore Heat Flux in Excluded Elements
The following values determine how Creo Simulate treats changes in temperature during an analysis. The following options appear when you select Excluded Elements on the analysis definition dialog box.
Heat Flux—Ignores fluxes in measure calculations. Creo Simulate also ignores energy norms in the excluded elements during convergence checking.
Heat Flux and Temperature—Ignores fluxes and temperatures in measure calculations. Creo Simulate also ignores energy norms in the excluded elements and temperatures at excluded element edges during convergence checking.
