I performed thermal analysis. I checked the results and found them as expected. I saved the file with a new name, then I converted the thermal elements to structural ones. Finally, I applied temperature loads from thermal analysis, by selecting the thermal file.rst. The problem that when I list...
I'm performing a thermal analysis for a structure that consists of solid, shell and bar elements. I want to get the temperature distribution through all the elements to utilize that as load for a structural analysis. I'm using elements Solid 70, shell 131, and link 33 for the thermal analysis...
I want to know how can I define different load steps in Ansys? Also, I want to know how can I make different load cases and get the results from each case separately or from combinations of them?
Thanks.
This is the first time to perform thermal analysis in Ansys.
I want to make thermal gradient on solid 70 elements. For example, the temp. on the top of the elements is known to be 60 and the temp. on the bottom of the elements is 20.
To my knowledge, I'll apply boundary condition (Temp.) on...
