Material thermal expansion coefficient can be defined for FEM but not the reference temperature #13019
Comments
Is a separate material property appropriate? It could also be added as a property to Thermal.yml if that's more appropriate |
I think that it should be a new property in the Thermal group: It could be also named Thermal expansion reference temperature for more clarity bit it would be a rather long name so maybe with some abbreviations? Like Thermal expansion ref. temp. ? |
Fixes FreeCAD#13019 Adds the property 'Thermal Expansion Reference Temperature' to the Thermal properties
Fixes FreeCAD#13019 Adds the property 'Thermal Expansion Reference Temperature' to the Thermal properties
* Material: Add thermal reference temperature Fixes #13019 Adds the property 'Thermal Expansion Reference Temperature' to the Thermal properties * Fix delegates
Is there an existing issue for this?
Problem description
Thermal material properties include the expansion coefficient but it should be also possible to specify the reference temperature (the temperature at which there are no thermal strains). CalculiX handles it this way:
If not specified, it's assumed to be 0 which is often not the desired behavior.
It could be added as a separate material property to make it simple.
@davesrocketshop Can you add it at some point?
P.S. It would be nice to have Material selectable under Subproject(s) affected.
