A steady state heat transfer analysis computes steady state temperatures based on model geometry, material properties, and long term ambient thermal boundary conditions. Thermal boundary conditions can include applied temperatures, as well as ambient radiation, and natural or forced convection coefficients. Temperature dependent material properties are used for these analyses. Sometimes linear analysis results will indicate the need to do a nonlinear analysis.
