Hi,
I am modeling two concentric cylinders with a gap between them initially in 2D Axisymmetric.
(1) I am using "Heat Transfer in Solids" and "Solid Mechanics". I have defined a contact pair in Model1>Definitions with outer surface of inner cylinder as source and inner surface of outer cylinder as destination. Chose assembly as finalization.
(2) The ends are fixed.
(3) I applied a boundary load at innermost surface of the inner cylinder so that the inner cylinder expands and touches outer cylinder. Made a contact node in "solid Mechanics".
(4) There is heat generation in inner cylinder which i have applied with a Heat Source.
I want the inner cylinder to expand and touch the outer one so that there is heat transfer from inner to outer.
Plz tell me what else i need to add in "Solid Mechanics" or "Heat Transfer in solids" so that it works.
Do i need to make a "contact" in "Heat Transfer in Solids"??
Regards and Thanks
