Hi All,
I am trying to model the stress and heat transfer in a model of a Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) device.
The device contains an inner heat exchanging fin assembly through which a hot exhaust gas will flow. This is modelled using a surface heat flux into the fins. The heat then travels...
thanks for your help, I was able to successfully model basic thermal expansion! I am now trying to add a surface heat flux to a plate to see how it behaves. I get no warnings, but I get an error saying "too many attempts made for this increment". i know this is a very generic error. also, should...
I have tried putting in boundary conditions and predefined fields. I have been primarily trying to use a coupled temp-displacement step.
The warnings i get are "There is zero HEAT FLUX" and I have also gotten Zero Pivot error on DOF 11 when I've tried doing it different ways. After several...
Hi everyone, I finished school recently and have started my first job as a mechanical engineer. One of the things I am tasked with doing right now is to perform Abaqus thermal stress simulations on a thermoelectric generator. I have no previous experience with Abaqus so i'm looking for some...
