About this Block
What it does: This block is used to define the baseline temperature to be used in thermal stress analysis. Commons uses:- A boundary condition in a thermal stress analysis.
- Use it with an Applied Temperature boundary condition.
- The thermal stress is calculated from the difference between the initial temperature and the applied temperature.
