Dynamic, temp-disp, explicit, consistent units (Abaqus)
Dynamic, temp-disp, explicit, consistent units (Abaqus)
(OP)
Greetings fellow engineers,
I have created a concept model where I for the first time included temperature in explicit. I do not trust my temperature results.
You can see the model here: OLD-LINK
Temperature reached high values (10^4) and spreads quickly.
Units I want to use: mm, N, MPa, tonne
Units I am unsure of: Specific heat, conductivity
Other uncertainties: Contact heat generation
Material data and contact definition is in the attached file.
Could anyone please comment on the units that I have used for the thermal properties and (or) contact interaction property?
Thank you in advance,
S

Specific heat 0.466 J.g-1.K-1
You must use 0.466E9 mJ.tonne-1.K-1 so 466000000 mJ.tonne-1.K-1
