Geometry
AIM will prompt to either Define new geometry, Import geometry file, or Connect to active CAD session. Select Import new geometry and downloaded the file here. Since we are interested in the centerline temperature of the wire, a one quarter symmetric model will be used to allow us to easily post-process the centerline temperature. AIM will prompt again asking you to select your Additional Physics and Options. Since we are looking at temperature of the centerline and heat dissipation, thermal results will also need to be calculated. Under Additional Physics, select Thermal And then click Finish.
