Heat source?
Posted: Thu Feb 02, 2023 3:24 pm
Not real familiar with doing thermal studies so looking for some help.
I have a situation where I have a part that is seeing minimal contact with another hot part, coming out of a HT furnace. That part I got. What I'm not getting is how do I account for the radiation and other heat. When I go to add a radiation loads it asks me for "Exposed faces". Maybe I'm thinking backwards but what I want is to assign values to the object that is hot and have that be a heat source.
The "Exposed surfaces" will have different radiation depending where on the surface they are in comparison to the heat source.
Thank You
