Format Temperature
Altair EmployeeHi. I have applied a temperature of 35 °C (through the panel Analysis-->Temperatures) on some of the nodes of my model. When I open the file .fem the id of the node is right next to the value of the temperature. How could one understand what the value of the temperature is just by looking at the file .fem? He or she could say, in my opinion, that the temperature is 5, or 35, or 335...
TEMP 3 237335.0
TEMP 3 237835.0

Altair EmployeeHi Chait. Actually after 24 characters the temperature value starts. How did you know that (about the 24 characters)? Because I have not been able to find it.
Altair EmployeeThere are three formats followed for solver input deck.Short field,long field and free format.I found this on Hyperworks help files.
Follow format...
It seems to me short field format,so count 8 characters for each
After 24 characters length(include spaces as well), temperature value starts
8 characters 8 characters 8 characters 8 characters
TEMP ID NODE ID Temperature value
If you see 16 characters space,then it should be long field format ,count 16 instead of 8
Usually,first and last 8 characters are left justified,in between can be any thing left/right/middle justified..depends on the solver
