Heat transfer

Altair Forum User

-->Sans titre 1.bmpHi everyone! 

 

I'm studying mechanical engineering i  France an I have to make a thermomechanical simulation on a cylnder on HyperWorks 13 by using Optistruct.

 

I first want to study the heat transfer on the cylinder so I followed this video to set my analysis :

Unfortunately I have an error message when I launch the analysis...Here is the message:

 

 'Heat GRID 1 used with Component 123 on card SPC 2'

 

Does someone can help me to solve my problem?... The only differences I have from the video are the dimension: (external radius 20cm and internal radius 12) and the mesh (I attached a pictures).

 

 

 

Thk you in advance!

The simplest answer is that you will have to review the set up again, if you follow the tutorial here exactly - OptiStruct > OptiStruct Tutorials and Examples > Tutorials > Basic Small Displacement Finite Element Analysis:

OS-1080: Coupled Linear Heat Transfer/Structure Analysis

 

there should be no problems, the tutorial when followed exactly provides correct results.
