Hello

I am attempting to use solidworks w/ cosmos2008 to do a thermal analysis of an object which is rotating. I am essentially trying to simulate a sun and having a wheel rotate about an axis in a motion study of sorts. Is this actually possible or am I asking too much of the program? If so how?

Thanks
