EXUNIT
EXUNIT, Ldtype
, Load
, Untype
, Name
Specifies the interface data unit labels to be written to the profile file from
Mechanical APDL to Ansys CFX transfer.
Ldtype
Load type:
SURF
—
Surface load.
VOLU
—
Volumetric load.
Load
Surface loads:
DISP
—
Displacement in a static analysis. Mode shape in a modal analysis.
TIME
—
Time. The unit for frequency is the inverse of the unit for time.
MASS
—
Mass.
TEMP
—
Temperature.
HFLU
—
Heat flux.
Volumetric loads:
DISP
—
Displacement.
FORC
—
Force
HGEN
—
Heat generation
Untype
Unit type:
COMM
—
Predefined unit
USER
—
User-specified unit
Name
Commonly used predefined unit name or user-specified unit name.
SI
—
International System of units (meter-kilogram-second) (default)
FT
—
English System of units (feet-pound-second)
In the SI system, surface loads are in units of m for DISP, degrees K for TEMP, and W/m2 for HFLU; volumetric loads are in units of m for DISP, N/m3 for FORC, and W/m3 for HGEN.
In the English system, surface loads are in units of ft for DISP, degrees F for TEMP, and BTU/sec-ft2 for HFLU; volumetric loads are in units of ft for DISP, pdl/ft3 for FORC, and BTU/sec-ft3 for HGEN. A pdl is a poundal, and 32.174 pdl = 1 lbf.
Notes
This command only specifies which unit labels are to be written to the file when the EXPROFILE is issued. It does not perform unit conversions.
