Thickness (Heat Transfer in Shells interface)
Use this subnode to edit the total thickness of a layered material to be considered for heat transfer, when the Layer type is Thermally thin approximation.
Layer Selection
The Layered material settings in this section are those of the parent node and are not editable.
Thickness
Set the Total layer thickness ds to be considered for heat transfer modeling. A scaling factor ds/ds0 is applied to the heat transfer equation terms, where ds0 is the original layered material thickness, defined as the sum of the material’s layers thicknesses. The scaling is applied identically on all the layers of the material.
