Hello, I apologize if this has been discussed in the past but my searches did not turn up anything.
I am running a set of transient thermal studies, and I would like Study 2 to use the temp profile results from Study 1 etc.
I see the check box for "Initial Temperature from thermal study' box, and have it checked. I see where I can select Study 1 from the drop down. I then enter in the final time step (1600) of Study 1 in the Time Steps box and run the simulation. When I observe the results the initial temp is the same as the initial temp of Study 1, and when I review the study options menu, the Time Steps box is set back to "1" where I had entered "1600", it won't save the time step number and always uses "1" for the time step.
Everything else in the menu works (total time, time increment, etc).
Am I missing something in saving the results of Study 1 or something? I've tried that, but the drop down does not appear to access saved results files, just current study names.
Thanks,
