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.
