Hello,
I'm currently working with transient temperature results obtained from our proprietary solver. This solver outputs multiple *.out files, each representing temperature data at specific time increments (namely, at 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 seconds). These files include information on node numbers and their corresponding nodal temperatures, for instance:
*TEMPERATURE
1, 307.537
2, 306.252
3, 307.885
4, 306.662
5, 321.711
6, 321.605
7, 308.103
8, 308.622
...
My objective is to incorporate these nodal temperatures into my structural analysis model in ABAQUS, which is structured in an .inp file format. Typically, this would involve using the *TEMPERATURE, INPUT command for each individual time step.
However, my challenge lies in the requirement to model this within a single analysis step, where nodal temperatures at different time increments must be accurately represented. Given the complexity, especially considering the model comprises over 1 million nodes, I am seeking advice on the most efficient approach to achieve this.
Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Omid
