Hi,
I used hetval to generate heat for a welding process, I am trying to test my subroutine and I set FLUX(1) to a very large number, like 50000000000, but the output of HFL Magnitude(which should be the value I input in FLUX(1)) turns out to be very small, like 10E-6, and it is also a linearly increasing curve with respect to time. And the temperature is not increasing verly slowly.
I think the unit is all right because I double check it.
The same problem I face when using DFLUX.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks!
