I am importing a notepad .txt file that contains the temperature values with respect to position, i.e. T(x,y,z) in 3D geometry.
I am using:
1- Global Definitions --- Interpolation --- import file
2- Structural module ---- Thermal expansion--- int1(x,y,z) as Temperature load ---- Reference Temperature= 0
However, after solving the Time-Dependent problem, when I plot the Temperature in "Results" it shows only the first entry/value of temperature of the imported file, i.e. no gradient at all or not matching with interpolated values plot. When I plot the interpolation it shows the right plotting of T(x,y,z).
Can someone tell me why it is not being imposed as gradient? I am not getting the expected stresses; the result of stress value is much lower than expected.
Could you provide the .txt file over here so it will easy to find out the problem because its bit hard to figure it out through your explanation only .
I am really sorry for late reply. For some reason I could not get connect to it. Anyways can you provide me your email ID, I will send you my .txt file or other files if you need.
