    Change BCs for different load steps

    Hello everyone! How can we apply new BC's on the solved model? For example one time step I apply compression, and then in the second time step I change my BC's and apply support elements and another loading. With loading it is not a problem, but the BC´s such as supports is a question for me...

    Conditional enthalpy properties Workbench

    Dear Latexman, thank you for you reply. I have attached the data sheet of the material that I use. If you look at the partial Enthalpy Distribution you may find red and blue indicators for heat and cool. This material is able to store heat, moreover for some of the materials from this series the...

    Conditional enthalpy properties Workbench

    Could you please give a hint how to apply conditional enthalpy properties depending on thermal loads? For example I have a material with different enthalpy properties for cooling and heating processes. How can I specify that during cooling one values must be applied and during heating the other...

    Melting with a cartridge heater ANSYS

    Thank you for your reply! The model is solving a phase change problem, that is why I use a thermal transient analysis. I did it analogously to the ANSYS tutorial about a solidification of an aluminum flywheel casting contained in a sand mold. I get a max value of the 70C during the lab test and...

    Melting with a cartridge heater ANSYS

    Has anyone simulated transient thermal models with a cartridge heater? I am simulating a melting process of a paraffin-like material. The heat source is a small heating cartridge (omega). During the simulation I apply the same amount of heat flux as in the laboratory test (simply as W/m^2)...
