The following imported loading condition enhancements were made at Release 2025 R2:
Load Mapping for Imported Body Temperature. The Mapped Data property is now supported for the Imported Body Temperature load during the Thermal Stress analysis. This property provides the To Binary File option that uses an internal binary file to perform load mapping as compared to the legacy behavior that uses an ASCII file to map data using the To Input File option. This feature is also supported for import using MAPDL Results File option of the Imported Load (Group) object as well as when using External Data.
Application Generated Named Selections for Imported CFD Pressure. Now, when you import an Imported CFD Pressure, the properties of the Named Selection Creation category of the Details pane support the ability to automatically create element face-based Named Selections, for Unmapped, Mapped, and Outside nodes.
Shared Reference Body. Additionally, when you scope the Imported CFD Pressure to bodies that share faces or element faces, the Shared Reference Body property is now available. This property enables you to select the body on which you wish to apply the pressure.
Automatically Create Velocities and Synchronize Analysis Settings for the H5DPF File Format. When you import velocities from External Data using a Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) Version 5 (*.hdf5/*.h5) file, the imported data often contains numerous orders or frequencies, each with multiple RPM values. Now, using the context (right-click) menu option, Create Velocities and Sync Analysis Settings, from the Imported Load (Group) object, you can automatically synchronize the properties of your Analysis Settings object with imported velocity data.
Synchronizing Analysis Frequencies. Now, when you import velocities from a Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) Version 5 (*.hdf5/*.h5) file using External Data, or, from an upstream Harmonic Response analysis, a new context (right-click) menu option, Sync Analysis Frequencies, is available. This option enables you to synchronize the Analysis Settings based on the selected imported load’s source RPMs and Frequencies. This eliminates the need to manually synchronize these settings.
Imported Velocity Source Dimension. The application now supports the Source Dimension property for the Imported Load (Group) object when you import an Imported Velocity load from a Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) Version 5 (*.hdf5/*.h5) file using External Data. This enables you to set the model dimension, 2D or 3D, of the source file.
Grouping Imported Loads in a Binary File. The Imported Remote Loads object has a new Grouping property option: To Binary File. This option enables you to group all imported loads in a binary file. Once imported, the application creates a new object: File Based Imported Loads. Use the properties of this object to view load data by RPM Selection, Remote Point, and load Type in the Graph and Tabular Data windows. This is the preferred option if you are importing substantial amounts of load data as compared to directly importing loads which requires the application to generate a large number of objects.
