The Ansys Innovation Space website recently experienced a database corruption issue. While service has been restored there appears to have been some data loss from November 13. We are still investigating and apologize for any issues our users may have as a result.

Ansys Lumerical HEAT

In this learning track, we will learn about the Ansys Lumerical HEAT solver, which can be used for thermal simulations in the finite-element multiphysics environment. We will start with the physics of the solver as well as its various modes of operation and discuss some real-world application examples for which the HEAT solver can be used. We will then set up and analyze the flow of heat in a thin film. Following this, we will cover useful information about the material models used. We will also introduce various simulation objects available in the HEAT solver, such as sources, monitors, and boundary conditions. Finally, we will discuss thermal-conductive and transient (time-dependent) simulations that can be performed.
