StructuralSurfaceActionThermal
Thermal load on surface elements
The thermal load on the surface elements (StructuralSurfaceMember). The variation of the thermal load can be constant or linear over the cross-section of the beam.
Specification in the excel
| Name of the column header | Type of data | Value example or enum definition | Required value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | String | LT1 | yes | Human readable unique name of the load |
Variation | Enum | Constant Linear | yes | Specifies how the temperature varies Constant: The load is defined by means of a single value T1. The value specifies the change in temperature of the 2D member (straight ΔT). Temperature change is constant along the cross-section. Linear: The load is defined by means of a set of two values T1 and T2. The individual values specify the temperature at individual surfaces - top, bottom of the 2D member. |
TempT [°C] | Double | 18 | yes | Specifies the first size of the load in Celsius/Fahrenheit. For constant: Delta temperature on the center plane For linear: Temperature of top surface (LCS direction +z) of 2D member |
TempB [°C] | Double | 18 | yes, if Variation = Linear | Specifies the second size of the load in Celsius/Fahrenheit. For linear: Temperature of bottom surface (LCS direction -z) of 2D member |
2D Member | String | S15 | yes | The name of the StructuralSurfaceMember or StructuralSurfaceActionDistributionwhich is the surface load related to. |
2D Member Region | String | R1 | yes, if on region | The name of the StructuralSurfaceMemberRegion to which is the surface action related if it is available on 2D member. |
Load case | String | LC1 | yes | The name of the load case to which the load belongs |
Parent ID | String | 67b35d84-3d04-47aa-aa4a-dc1263982320 | no | Is filled for objects created be dividing curved geometry to series of straight line objects. Parent ID will ensure that curved edge is imported as straight parts to nonsupporting application, and back to original supporting application as curved geometry. To ensure successful round trip of segmented objects and their related objects, Parent ID needs to be present in both directions. |
Id | String | 39f238a5-01d0-45cf-a2eb-958170fd4f39 | no | Unique attribute designation |
