HeatFlux

class pyccx.bc.HeatFlux(target, flux=0.0, name=None, amplitude=None, timeDelay=None)

Bases: BoundaryCondition

The flux boundary condition applies a uniform external heat flux \(q\) to faces of surface boundaries elements (correctly ordered according to Calculix’s requirements). This BC may be used in thermal and coupled thermo-mechanical analyses.

Attributes Summary

flux	The flux value \(q\) used for the Heat Flux boundary condition

Methods Summary

type()	Returns the BC type so that they are only applied to suitable load cases
