Scenario: With a combination of Body loads coming from Thermal system and “Thermal condition” in a structural system. It is noted that Deactivation of “Imported Body temperatures” in the Ultimate load step is causing removal of entire body loads including ” Thermal condition” loads. Due to this, It was using Environment temperature as reference temperature. This is causing unexpected results in the last load step. The workaround is to use BF command through APDL command snippets for respective load step. Eg: bf,all, temp,125 ! 125 is required uniform temperature <\/p>\n
