Standard results in thermal analysis

The results generated in a Thermal analysis study enable you to determine the temperature distribution and heat flow in your model under steady-state thermal conditions. Online results are presented in the Browser.

Temperature The steady-state temperature distribution throughout the model resulting from applied thermal loads and boundary conditions. Browser
Heat Flux Total, - X, - Y, - Z The rate of heat energy transfer through the material. Higher heat flux indicates areas where heat is flowing more rapidly. Browser
Thermal Gradient Total, - X, - Y, - Z The rate of temperature change with distance. High thermal gradients can indicate areas of rapid temperature change that may cause thermal stress. Browser
