5.15.7.3.2. Face Temperatures and Convections at Fluid-Structure Interface

This feature allows the transfer of either of the following thermal solutions from a CFD solution boundary to a corresponding face in the Mechanical application model:

  • Temperatures at the fluid-structure interface.

  • Film coefficients and bulk temperature values at the fluid-structure interface.

The import process involves interpolating a CFD solution onto the Mechanical application face mesh. This requires that the following conditions are met:

  • The fluid-structure interface must be a defined boundary in CFD.

  • The location of the CFD boundary (with respect to the global Cartesian coordinate system) must be the same as the corresponding face(s) in the Mechanical application model.
