FEM Cooling Analysis Quick Start Tutorial
In this tutorial, you set up and run a finite element method (FEM) cooling analysis on a 4-cavity tool on the computer mouse cover. The FEM cooling analysis calculates both steady state and transient mold temperatures. Steady state is an average mold temperature. With transient, the mold temperature changes over time. In this tutorial, you run a steady state analysis.
