clump thermal attribute command

Syntax

clump thermal attribute keyword ... <range>

Primary keywords:

expansion    power-applied    specific-heat    temperature    temperature-increment

Set the value of thermal clump attributes. This is a synonym for the clump thermal initialize command. Individual attributes can be listed with the clump thermal list command, and all thermal clump attributes can be visualized.

Note

Similar to clump attributes and properties, there is a fundamental distinction between thermal clump attributes and thermal clump properties. Thermal clump attributes are characteristics of the thermal clumps such as temperature or specific-heat.

expansion f [cthmodblock]

thermal-expansion coefficient

power-applied f [cthmodblock]

applied power

specific-heat f [cthmodblock]

specific heat

temperature f [cthmodblock]

temperature

temperature-increment f [cthmodblock]

temperature increment since last mechanical coupling

clump thermal attribute Keyword Block

The following keywords may be used to modify the base value supplied. expansion, power-applied, specific-heat, temperature and temperature-increment.

add f

Add f to the existing value.

gradient v

Apply a linear gradient in each of the axes directions starting at the origin.

gradient-x f

Apply a linear gradient in the \(x\)-direction starting at the origin.

gradient-y f

Apply a linear gradient in the \(y\)-direction starting at the origin.

gradient-z f (3D ONLY)

Apply a linear gradient in the \(z\)-direction starting at the origin.

multiply f

Multiply the existing value by f.

replace f

Replace the existing value with f.
