Uncoupled heat transfer analysis

Uncoupled heat transfer problems:

are those in which the temperature field is calculated without consideration of the stress/deformation field in the bodies. can include conduction, boundary convection, and boundary radiation. can include cavity radiation effects. can be transient or steady-state and linear or nonlinear.

Sequentially coupled thermalstress analysis

A sequentially coupled heat transfer analysis: is used when the stress/deformation field in a structure depends on the temperature field in that structure, but the temperature field can be found without knowledge of the stress/deformation response. i is usually performed b fi ll f d by first conducting an d i uncoupled heat transfer analysis and then a stress/deformation analysis analysis.

Saving the nodal temperatures

Nodal temperatures are stored as a function of time in the heat transfer results (.fil) file or output database (.odb) file by requesting output variable NT as nodal output to the results or output database fil d t b file.

Transferring the heat transfer results to the stress analysis

The temperatures are read into the stress analysis as a predefined field; the temperature varies with position and i usually ti i ith iti d is ll time dependent. It is predefined because it is not changed by the stress analysis solution. Such g y y predefined fields are always read into ABAQUS/Standard at the nodes. They are then interpolated to the calculation points within elements as needed.

Fully coupled thermal-stress analysis

A coupled temperature-displacement procedure is used to solve simultaneously for the stress/displacement and the temperature fields. A coupled analysis is used when the thermal and mechanical solutions affect each other strongly. For example, in rapid metalworking problems the inelastic deformation of the material causes i l i d f i f h i l heating, and in contact problems the heat conducted across gaps may depend strongly on the gap clearance or pressure.

Fully coupled thermal-stress analysis

A fully coupled thermal-stress analysis: requires the use of elements with both temperature q p and displacement degrees of freedom. can be used to analyze time-dependent material y p response. cannot include cavity radiation effects.

In ABAQUS/Standard a fully coupled thermal-stress analysis: neglects inertia effects.

Adiabatic analysis

An adiabatic mechanical analysis can be used in cases where mechanical deformation causes heating, but the event is so rapid that this heat has no time to diffuse through the material. Adiabatic analysis can be performed in ABAQUS/Standard or ABAQUS/Explicit. is i available only f the i il bl l for h isotropic h d i metal i hardening l plasticity models with a Mises yield surface.
