Reply To: Import temperature load with shell elements

[amit.moond]

I am trying to do to pre-stressed modal analysis. Modal is linked with static and static is linked with the steady state thermal.

I am having shell and solid in my modell. Initially i tried with "No Variation along thickness",here the results are not much promising. Then i changed the thermal variation of all shell bodies to "Quadratic variation". Now error pops up regarding higher temp at some node.

The main problem with "No variation along thickness" was ansys was unanle to differntitate betweeen the mid surface. The same surface will have the temp and same surface will have convection.

Here i want temp on the inside and convection  at outside.
