Thermal frequency response analysis#
Qualitative measure of a system or device in response to a thermal stimulus used to characterize the behavior of a system. Thermal characterization of the transfer function response of the composition in frequency domain.
Axis positions#
Define the position of the axis. Default is (0,0,0).
Loads#
Open the load case container, where load cases can be defined (CTRL+K on load case to configure).
Add load case#
Add a load case to the load case container. To configure the load case, click CTRL+K on the load case.
Link#
Define at which entity the load is applied.
Thermal load#
Define the thermal load that is applied to the system. Three types of thermal loads can be defined.
Type |
Thermal load |
---|---|
Convection |
Convection load applied to entity in [K] |
Heat flux |
Heat flux load apploed to entity in [W/m^2] |
Heat flow |
Heat flow load applied to entity in [W] |
Add convection load#
Add a convection load to the load case.
Add heat flux load#
Add a heat flux load to the load case.
Add heat flow load#
Add a heat flow load to the load case.
Hint#
By right-clicking on the number in the first column, the load can be deleted.
Frequency range#
Define the frequency range for the thermal frequency response analysis.
Number of points#
The number of points defines how many steps between the minimal and maximal frequency are taken.
Start calculation#
Start the calculation of the frequency response analysis.
