5. Solution
In this section several outputs will be specified before we have ANSYS solve.
Temperature
To specify the temperature as an output (Right Click) Solution > Insert > Thermal > Temperature, as shown below.
Total Heat Flux
In order to have ANSYS solve for the Total Heat Flux, (Right Click) Solution > Insert > Thermal > Total Heat Flux, as shown below.
Directional Heat Flux
In order to have ANSYS solve for the Directional Heat Flux, (Right Click) Solution > Insert > Thermal > Directional Heat Flux, as shown below.
The default direction is set to x; however it can be changed within the "Details of of Directional Heat Flux" table.
Execute the Solver
In order to have ANSYS solve for the previously defined results (Click) Solve,
