Here is a simple simulation of a stationnary GTA spot welding.
It involves only heat transfer. All the file are attached in the compressed folder.
You just need to launch elmersolver or open it ElmerGUI.
If i forgot something let me know .
See you later

Hi everyone, this is probably a simple question but... here it is: I'm trying to add a lorentz force to a heat transfer and fluid flow problem. I simulate the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) stationnary welding spot on a cylinder. I work on 2d axi symmetry. I've finished the heat transfer and fluid flow pa...

Hi everybody.... this is probably easy to do.. but i m quite new. I'm solving a heat transfer and fluid flow problem. I would like to define a body force that requires both temperature and velocity components... i can get the temperature with "variable Temperature.... but i don"t know the ...

another question for You Peter (or if somebody else have the answer i take it):
what is the sentence for recompiling "ElmerSolver.src" into a elmersolver2.so with some modification.
I was thinking to add a main program and call elmersolver and add my optimisation loop in this main program...

thanks Peter for your quick reply... May i ask another (or few) question? is it possible to open elmersolver source code and launch it from a fortran routine by using the syntax "CALL ElmerSolver" ... well i tried but obviously ( i didn't use fortran since 7 years and it was f77). and i've...

i am interested in modelling and simulating the multiphysics Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process: heat transfer + fluid flow (weld pool) + Electromagnetism + free surface (on weld pool). To start with (has i installed Elmer last thursday on my computer) i will begin with the heat transfer problem then ...

Well i don't where to start! i simulated (heat transfer only) a GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process). it consists of a static test on a a cylinder. A heat flux (gaussian distribution) is imposed on top surface of the cylinder. This heat flux represents the heat generated by the electrical arc dur...
