Notes

This command transfers a thermal body-force load (HGEN) from selected MESH200 elements to associated reinforcing elements or members (individual reinforcings). The association is established via EREINF using the mesh-independent method for defining reinforcing.

Issue this command after issuing EREINF.

Select MESH200 elements by issuing this command and specifying the component, or by issuing ESEL. (If you specify a component name, ESEL is ignored.)

This command supports a thermal body-force load (HGEN) only.

To define the thermal body-force load on MESH200 elements, issue BFE or BF.

This command is also valid in PREP7.
