Point Heat Flux (Thin Rod)
Use this subnode to add heat flux at points of a thin rod. A positive heat flux adds heat to the rod.
Heat Flux
Select either the General inward heat flux (the default) or Convective heat flux buttons.
If General inward heat flux is selected, it adds q0 to the total flux across the selected points. Enter a value for q0 to represent a heat flux that enters the rod.
If Convective heat flux is selected, it adds q0 in the form q0 = h ⋅ (Text − T). Enter the Heat transfer coefficient h and the External temperature Text. The value depends on the geometry and the ambient flow conditions.
