Your

familiarize the user with initiating a model in MSC.Thermal. Use your
imagination and engineering skill to sketch and model a simple problem

Thermal
Block: A simple
1x1x1 geometric cube is meshed to represent a thermally conducting solid.
Various boundary conditions are added to the model, i.e. temperature,
convection, and radiation. Each time a new boundary condition is applied
a complete thermal analysis is performed and the corresponding results
viewed in Patran. This makes it possible to see the cumulatitive effect
of adding different boundary conditions. (Supplementary 3) |
