Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation textbook
Design Generator Inc.
Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation introduces you to both thermal analysis and its implementations. It covers heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation and conjugate heat transfer in fluids and solids. It uses hands-on exercises that build on one another.

Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation Introduces you to both thermal analysis and its implementation in SOLIDWORKS Simulation. Covers heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation, thermally induced stress and thermally induced buckling. Uses hands on exercises that build on one another throughout the book. Designed for users already familiar with Finite Element Analysis using SOLIDWORKS Simulation. Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation 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 on the skills and understanding gained from previous exercises. Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation 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. Thermal Analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation 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
