Hello!

I'm performing a coupled thermal-structural analysis in ANSYS Workbench 14.0. I realized, that my body load is not being applied because of the definition of the element (solid98):

"When the temperature degree of freedom is active, applied body force temperatures [BF, BFE] are ignored."

Do you know which element I could use, which alow me to apply a body force temperature (BF) while having active the temperature DOF?

Thank you.

Julia
