Temperature step

HadiBadger · April 1, 2015, 22:31

how can I apply a temperature range to a surface
for example: i want to start with 40C and reach 60C with 2C step

it really basic...
create a function Temperature = F(timestep) then go to your surface BC and set the temperature as the function.
done

I actually tried that but honestly failed. Can u give more details in how to write the right FORMATION of an applied gradual temperate:
40[C], 42[C], 44[C], 46[C], ......, 60[C]

You can use 1D interpolation functions or write a CEL expression.
