This section is available when a temperature-dependent density defined in a material is used. On the material frame, the density is evaluated onto a reference temperature to ensure mass conservation in the presence of temperature variations. By default the Common model input is used. This corresponds to the variable
minput.Tempref, which is set by default to 293.15 K. To edit it, click the
Go to Source button (
), and in the
Default Model Inputs node under
Global Definitions, set a value for the
Volume reference temperature in the
Expression for remaining selection section.
The other options are User defined and all temperature variables from the physics interfaces included in the model.
This section is available when temperature-dependent material properties are used. By default the temperature of the parent interface is used and the section is not editable. To edit the Temperature field, click
Make All Model Inputs Editable (
). The available options are
User defined (default),
Common model input (the
minput.T variable, set to 293.15 K by default) and all temperature variables from the physics interfaces included in the model. To edit the
minput.T variable, click the
Go to Source button (
), and in the
Default Model Inputs node under
Global Definitions, set a value for the
Temperature in the
Expression for remaining selection section.
The Thermal conductivity kl should be specified. By default it is taken
From material. For
User defined select
Isotropic,
Diagonal,
Symmetric, or
Full to enter another value or expression.
By default the Density ρl and the
Heat capacity at constant pressure Cp, l values are taken
From material. See
Material Density in Features Defined in the Material Frame if a temperature-dependent density should be set. For
User defined enter other values or expressions.
