Thermal Stress Analysis in Femap

In this video we will be using a model of a mounting plate that has already been created. The analysis process includes:
Creating an ambient temperature body load as well as nodal temperatures.
Analyzing the model with NX Nastran’s Steady-State Heat Transfer Solution Method.
Creating a load from the temperature results, as well as, defining pinned constraints.
Analyzing the model with NX Nastran’s Static Solution Method and then post processing the stress results using FEMAP’s contour capabilities.

This example act in a tube geometry?

Hello! I have a question about the results of static analysis.I don't know what is with that value of 40933. Is it N/mm^2 or what? And 70, 200 and 250 value for temperature are kelvin degrees or celsius degrees? Thanks!

[@danpt2000]

i'm pretty sure they do not use Kelvin. In USA, more often than not, Fahrenheit is used. Celsius used sometimes. I believe Kelvin is used in more in Chemistry, or purely academic Physics research. I would imagine Astro physics might use kelvin, Or in high temperature chemistry applications.

FEMAP inputs and outputs are units agnostic. It's up to the analyst to ensure that their inputs adhere to a consistent unit system. The only case I'm aware of in which you might see people deviate from a consistent unit system is when the WTMASS parameter is used so you can enter mass in terms of weight (e.g. lbm instead of slugs).

The background music is completly out of place, unecessary, besides being annoying and disturbing, this would be a good Explanation without it

I disagree, the music was what made the video amazing for me.

the music is distracting yes....
