***************************** Thermal steady state analysis ***************************** Perform a thermal steady state analysis. Calculate the temperature distribution in the model. ===== Loads ===== Open the load case container, where load cases can be defined (CTRL+K on load case to configure). ------------- Add load case ------------- Add a load case to the load case container. To configure the load case, click CTRL+K on the load case. ^^^^ Link ^^^^ Define at which link the load is applied. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Thermal load ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Define the thermal load that is applied to the system. Three types of thermal loads can be defined. ========== ==================================================== Type Thermal load ========== ==================================================== Convection Convection load applied to entity in [K] Heat flux Heat flux load apploed to entity in [W/m\ :sup:`2`\] Heat flow Heat flow load applied to entity in [W] ========== ==================================================== ------------------- Add convection load ------------------- Add a convection load to the load case. ------------------ Add heat flux load ------------------ Add a heat flux load to the load case. ------------------ Add heat flow load ------------------ Add a heat flow load to the load case. =================== Axis position table =================== --------------- Number of poses --------------- Change the number of poses in the table. In the table the positions of the axes can be changed. MORe then performs a static analysis at every case defined. If the number of poses is 2, then 2 static analyses will be performed. ----- Table ----- For every pose the position of the axis can be defined. =============== Load case table =============== --------------- Number of poses --------------- Change the number of poses in the table. In the table weight of the loads can be changed. MORe then performs a static analysis at every case defined. If the number of poses is 2, then 2 static analyses will be performed. ----- Table ----- For every pose the load can be defined. ================= Start calculation ================= Start the calculation of the thermal steady state analysis.
