Hi All,

I would like to run a thermal stress analysis using the temperature distribution of a heat transfer analysis. I have the results of the heat transfer analysis. Using the "post" option the temperature of each nodes and each integration point for each increment is written to the output file. The question is how can I read that output file for the following thermal stress anlaysis.
I am using the option

Change state
1,3,0,25,1

The problem is how can I point the output file of the heat transfer analysis so that I can use the temperature distribution for the new thermal stress analysis.

Thanks in advance,

Eser
