How can i put a temperature constraint in topology optimization?

[Neetu Jha]

1. Response Constraint – You can set a maximum temperature as a response constraint to ensure it stays within limits during optimization, similar to maximizing stiffness in structural analysis.

2. Steady-State Thermal Systems – Apply temperature constraints to optimize steady-state thermal models, useful in processes like additive manufacturing.

3. Environment Context – Define temperature limits using the Temperature (Abs Max) property, either as a constant or tabular value, when using a steady-state thermal setup.
