Vertex Attributes: Temperature
Description
Assigns the temperature value and its type to selected vertices.
For the time dependent solvers, the attribute can reference a Factor vs Temperature table to define a temperature that varies with time (see Special Topics: Table Types).
When the geometry is meshed, the node created at the vertex will inherit the temperature attribute (see Node Attributes: Temperature).
Vertex temperature attributes are interpolated along edges during meshing, if the edge type is set to interpolated (see Edge Attributes: Type). They are also interpolated over an entire geometry face when all vertices on a face have a node temperature attribute assigned.
Temperature attributes are load case dependent.
