Reply To: Internal heat generation depending on temperature

[dlooman]

Heat generation can be defined as a function of temperature using table input as shown below. It is possible to do it "by hand" by running the solution with many load steps and querying the temperature with a commands object at the end of each solve, but this is easier.
