Not So Simple Thermal Problem

[porkchopsandwiches87]

Hi,

I want to create a thermal load that removes heat from the system based on the ambient temperature. How do I do this in Ansys 13?

I don't understand what you want. Can you explain it with more details ?

I have tabular data for a cyrocooler:

Capacity
16W @ 50k
23W @ 60K
30W @ 70K
37W @ 80K

We are using two of them to cool a small vacuum system. I would ideally like to see a temperature convergence. Is this possible?

I think you can specify a heat flux boundary condition with the SF command. Maybe Shelden covers it here:
