Contact Pressure-Dependent Thermal Contact Conductance in Ansys Mechanical

[@taosifalam1366]

Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial video. Your clear explanations and step-by-step instructions made it so much easier for me to understand. However, I am wondering, if we can define thermal contact conductance both as a function of temperature and pressure. In that case, how can I construct the table to define TCC vs (Pressure, Temperature) ?

Thank you for your comment. Yes, thermal contact conductance can be a function of both pressure and temperature. The TCC table in the command snippet needs to be a two-dimensional table, with pressures along the rows and temperatures along the columns. Add TEMP as the 2nd variable when dimensioning the table.
