LBLZT

Description

Thermal conduction constitutive law for solid elements at constant temperature (only suited for BLZ2T and BLZ3T).

The model

This law is only used for non linear thermal analysis of isotropic solids. This constitutive law takes account of heat transfer by conduction and heat accumulation in solids, the conductivity and heat capacity of which depend on temperature. This law is used for two or three dimensional heat flow.
