Engineers responsible for analyzing the thermal response of structures and components, are encouraged to take this course. The course focuses on performing steady-state, transient, linear and nonlinear thermal analyses.
After completing the seminar, analysts should be able to analyze:

• thermal responses of structures involving conduction, convection, and radiation
  
• the response of structures exhibiting special heat transfer phenomena including thermal-stress coupling and phase change.

Prerequisite: ANSYS Mechanical APDL Introduction

Course topics include:

• Fundamental Concepts
  
• Steady State Heat Transfer (no mass transport)
  
• Additional Considersations for Nonlinear Analysis
  
• Transient Analysis
  
• Complex, Time & Spatially Varying Boundary Conditions
  
• Additional Convection / Heat Flux Loading Options and Simple Thermal / Flow Elements
  
• Radiation Heat Transfer
  
• Phase Change Analysis
  
• The Finite Element Approach to Thermal Analysis

Each course chapter is followed by "hands-on" workshops and exercises
