Problem descriptionThe meshes used for the heat transfer tests are the same as those used for the corresponding stress elements, except that the axisymmetric heat transfer elements use a larger radius. For coupled temperature-displacement elements dummy mechanical properties are prescribed to complete the material definition. The total simulation time for the Abaqus/Explicit analysis is 20 units. This provides enough time for the transient solution to reach steady-state conditions in this problem. Boundary conditions:, where T is the temperature, through are arbitrary constants, and x, y, z denote spatial location. Temperatures are prescribed at every node along the boundary of the mesh. For shell elements z denotes the normal direction to the shell surface. Reference solutionFluxes: Since the temperature field is chosen to be linear, it has constant spatial gradients and, thus, has constant fluxes at every integration point. Results and discussionAll elements yield exact solutions. Input filesAbaqus/Standard input files
