Question

Temperature Dependant Material Properties

Does CREO Simulate have the ability to assign temperature dependent thermal properties? I'm simulating a flat plastic sheet in an industrial oven, I have a gravity load to represent the weight. I'd like to assign a temperature dependent material property and then use surface regions to define the temperature across the sheet to determine how much it will droop in the oven. If not I'd like to manually assign material properties to each surface region, is there a way to do that?

Thanks,

-Ben

Yes you can assign temperature dependent properties. Right click in the place you would normally type in the property value and choose "function".

From there you can create a new function and define values using either a table or an expression with temperature as a variable.

Unfortunately, one can only assign temperature dependent properties for steady state analysis not transient analysis,
