TBTEMP
TBTEMP, TEMP, KMOD
Defines a temperature for a material data table.
Valid Products: Pro | Premium | Enterprise | PrepPost | Solver | AS add-on
TEMPTemperature value (defaults to 0.0 if
KMODis blank).KMODUsed to add or modify the temperature and the associated material property, indexed as
KMOD(<=NTEMP defined in TB) in the material definition. See Example below.If blank,
TEMPdefines a new temperature. (Issue TBLIST to list temperatures and data.)
Notes
The TBTEMP command defines a temperature to be associated with the data on subsequent TBPT or TBDATA commands.
The defined temperature remains active until the next TBTEMP command is issued.
Data values must be defined with the temperatures in ascending order.
This command is also valid in SOLUTION.
Example Usage
! Allocate three temperature specifications TB,BKIN,1,3 TBTEMP,100,1 TBDATA,1,250E6,1E9 TBTEMP,200,2 TBDATA,1,275E6,1E9 TBTEMP,300,3 TBDATA,1,300E6,1E9 /COM,--- BEFORE KMOD MODIFICATION --- TBLIST,BKIN,1 ! Will list the original material properties with associated temperatures. /COM,--- Modify Temperature 2 property without changing temperature (KMOD=2) TBTEMP,,2 TBDATA,1,295E6,1E9 TBLIST,BKIN,1 ! Will list the material properties with modified values at the 2nd temperature /COM,--- Change temperature ! Change temperature specification KMOD=3 from 300 to 225 TBTEMP,225,3 /COM,--- AFTER KMOD MODIFICATION --- TBLIST,BKIN,1 ! Will list the material properties with a modified temperature value at KMOD=3
