Thermal Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013
Thermal Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013 Author:Paul Kurowski Thermal Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013 goes beyond the standard software manual. It concurrently introduces the reader to thermal analysis and its implementation in SolidWorks Simulation using hands-on exercises. A number of projects are presented to illustrate thermal analysis and related topics. Each chapter is designed to build o... more »n the skills and understanding gained from previous exercises. Thermal Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013 is designed for users who are already familiar with basics of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using SolidWorks Simulation or who have completed the book Engineering Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013. Thermal Analysis with SolidWorks Simulation 2013 builds on these topics in the area of thermal analysis. Some understanding of FEA and SolidWorks Simulation is assumed. Topics covered Analogies between thermal and structural analysis Heat transfer by conduction Heat transfer by convection Heat transfer by radiation Thermal loads and boundary conditions Thermal resistance Thermal stresses Thermal buckling Modeling techniques in thermal analysis Presenting results of thermal analysis Table of Contents Introduction to thermal analysis Hollow plate L bracket Thermal analysis of a Round bar Floor heating duct part 1 Floor heating duct part 2 Hot plate Thermal and thermal stress analysis of a coffee mug Thermal and thermal buckling analysis of a link Thermal analysis of a heat sink Radiative power of a black body Radiation of a hemisphere Radiation between two bodies NAFEMS Benchmarks Summary and miscellaneous topics Glossary of terms References List of exercises« less
