ANSYS Classic - Heat Transfer

Engineers responsible for analyzing the thermal response of structures and components, are encouraged to take this course. The course focuses on performing steady-state, transient, linear and nonlinear thermal analyses.

After completing the seminar, analysts should be able to analyze:

·         thermal responses of structures involving conduction, convection, and radiation

·         the response of structures exhibiting special heat transfer phenomena including thermal-stress coupling and phase change.

Course topics include:

·         Fundamental Concepts

·         Steady State Heat Transfer (no mass transport)

·         Additional Considersations for Nonlinear Analysis

·         Transient Analysis

·         Complex, Time & Spatially Varying Boundary Conditions

·         Additional Convection / Heat Flux Loading Options and Simple Thermal / Flow Elements

·         Radiation Heat Transfer

·         Phase Change Analysis

·         The Finite Element Approach to Thermal Analysis

Each course chapter is followed by "hands-on" workshops and exercises.
