Orthotropic Thermal Property

---

​

About this Block

What it does: Assigns the Thermal Conductivity and Specific Heat to an Orthotropic Material. Common uses:

• An input in defining an Orthotropic Material.
• For conducting a Thermal Analysis.

Tips:

• Create spatially varying properties by using Scalar Fields as inputs.
• Most required inputs are separated into their X, Y, and Z components.
• This block has an overload, to allow you to define an Orthotropic Nonlinear Thermal Property. This overload is in Beta.
