## About this Block

**What it does:** The **Temperature Point Map** block generates a Scalar Point Map of nodal temperatures from thermal analysis results.

**Common uses:**

* Can visualize thermal analysis results.

**Tips:**

* The point map consists of all the nodal points from the Thermal Analysis, and the temperature values associated with each of those points. These points and values are accessible in the properties of the Point Map.
* The HUD can be used to change the Lower bound, Upper bound, color palette and units as required.
* The point map can be exported with the **Export Point Map** block.
