Thermal Transient

Thermal transient analysis is used to capture the thermal behavior of a system over a specific span of time. Boundary conditions vary with time, but the material properties remain constant. Transient thermal analysis in SimSolid is based on modal superposition method.

Setup

  1. Specify the number of modes.
  2. Specify the time span.
  3. Specify the initial temperature.
  4. Select the Evaluate peak responses during solving check box to evaluate peak response during solution phase.
