applying a distributed flux


Updated by Altair Forum User
Hello everybody,
i followed the guide OS-1090 for linear transient heat transfer but instead of using a constant value for the heat flux i want to use a gaussian distribution.
How can i apply that in optistruct?

Thank you for the reply @Prakash Pagadala,
but i want to apply a heat flux which is circular and decreases from the middle point to the border in a gaussian distribution. Without taking time into account yet, how can i do this?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi @Erdinc92
Define the scale factor in TABLED1. In tutorial the Y is 1 from 0 to 500. But you can change depending on time.
