Hi,

I have a problem to solve.
It is about calculation of the resistance in the conductor (please refer to two attached files).
The conductor is of cylindrical shape. The power will be applied in red marked arreas.
I would like to calculate the resistance change in such a conductor depending on power value applied.

I am familiar to some extend with Ansys Mechanical.
However, I do not have much knowledge (yet) about Ansys Electrical.

I would like to ask very kindly whether the results achieved from Ansys calculation would allow me to obtain the resistance value directly or indirectly from the displayed results.

Thank you.

Regards.
