I'm setting up an SS Heat Generation Rate on a part. If I select multiple separate surfaces for the heat generation rate, is the parameter Q applied to each of those surfaces, or is it divided among all of those surfaces?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi,

I also had this question. In the training manual it looks like the value you enter is the total for all surfaces selected added up.

  Hi,
  
  For rates (unit/surface), the condition will be applied for each surface.
  However, if you apply a power or something else in Watt, it will be divided into every surfaces you take into account.
