Define size of critical temperatue zone? 1

[truongthinhs]

I have odb file. I set contour limit temperature equal critical temperatue to get critical temperature zone. Can I define its size and shape? If can, how do I do? Please, help me. Thanks.

It depends on how you wish to deine the critical temperature. Is it the temperature above a certain value or the temperature to cause a certain stress? The shape of the crtical temperature region will of course be defined by the contour at that temperature. You can't define the shape of a critical region before you've calculated it.
