Hi,

Are there any Examples or Tutorials for performing a heat transfer analysis with radioss block format? I want to simulate convective heating of a solid structure, but for all time steps, i recieve a temperature of 0K. Is there any control card needed to 'activate' heat transfer simulation?

Regards

    Hi dkr,

    Why not simulate the analysis using Optistruct? Have you seen the optistruct tutorials, especially 1085 and 1090

    OS-1080: Coupled Linear Heat Transfer/Structure Analysis
    OS-1085: Linear Steady State Heat Convection Analysis
    OS-1090: Linear Transient Heat Transfer Analysis of an Extended Surface Heat Transfer Fin
    OS-1100: Thermal Stress Analysis of a Printed Circuit Board with Anisotropic Material Properties
