3D thermal bridge analysis

Post by bje »

Is it possible to use Elmer for 3D (punctiform) thermal bridge analysis? Are there any examples I can start with to look at? Thanks.

Hi,

I assume that you want to calculate thermal stress in the bridge. I think it is possble, although I have never done it myself. in the "Non-GUI"-tutorials, there is one (No. 9) on thermal stress in a beam heated by a current.

HTH,
Matthias
