Allow Transient Mec/T loads as input to a new transient analysis

Allow Transient Mec/T loads as input to a new transient analysis

Currently one can only used results of a previous steady state analysis as initial temperatures for a transient thermal analysis.  One can use the results of a transient thermal analysis as input for a structural analysis but not for another transient thermal analysis.   Therefore, if one is determining the temperature distribution in a valve and the flow conditions change, one is out of luck as one cannot either vary the convection coefficient with time or start a new analysis with a different convection coefficient using the result of a previous analysis.
