Temperature loading, non-lin. (TNLIN)
Input of non-linear temperature loading for a series of elements. Based on a temperature field over the cross section, the load will be applied.
Note: For getting similar results in NLTemp using TNLIN load type, more discretization (mesh refinement) of cross-section elements need to be done.
The module TEMPVAR is not needed if this load type is taken.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| From, To, Step | Element series to be loaded |
| Assembly | Alternative to load assignment via element series: Name of the assembly to be loaded. The specified load is applied to every element of the specified assembly. |
| Attribute Set | Temperature distribution is defined as attribute set of type temperature. All cross section reference sets that refer to it define a temperature field. |
