19.8.5. Thermal Flow Results

You use the following flow-based result types for 2D and 3D thermal fluid flow analyses. Your model must include a line body that you specify as Thermal Fluid for these result types to be available for selection.

  • Fluid Flow Rate: rate of fluid flow through the specified Line Body.

  • Fluid Heat Conduction Rate: heat flow rate due to conduction within the fluid.

See FLUID116 in the Mechanical APDL Element Reference. The Output Data topic examines the solution output for these results.
