Definitions

Field Contents SI Unit Example
MID Material identification number of a MAT4 Bulk Data Entry that is temperature-dependent.

No default (Integer > 0)

 
T(K) Identification number of a TABLEMi or TABLEG entry that defines temperature-dependent thermal conductivity.

Default = 0 (Integer ≥ 0)

 
T(CP) Identification number of a TABLEMi or TABLEG entries that defines temperature-dependent specific heat.

Default = 0 (Integer ≥ 0)

 
T(H) Identification number of a TABLEMi or TABLEG entries that defines temperature-dependent convection coefficient.

Default = 0 (Integer ≥ 0)

 

Comments

  1. The quantities defined on the MAT4 Bulk Data Entry are multiplied by the tabular function referenced by the MATT4 Bulk Data card to generate the corresponding material properties.
  2. If the fields are blank or zero, then constant properties defined on the MAT4 Bulk Data card are used.
