How Do You Model Joule Heating in ANSYS Workbench for a Tungsten Filament?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on modeling Joule heating in ANSYS Workbench specifically for a tungsten filament subjected to an electric current. Users seek guidance on calculating the temperature emitted from the filament due to Joule heating effects. The conversation highlights the need for clear objectives, whether measuring the filament's temperature or the thermal effects on nearby objects. Participants emphasize the importance of tutorials or examples to effectively utilize ANSYS Workbench for thermoelectrical studies.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Joule heating principles
  • Familiarity with ANSYS Workbench simulation software
  • Basic knowledge of thermoelectrical concepts
  • Experience with thermal analysis in engineering applications
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Joule heating simulation in ANSYS Workbench"
  • Explore "Thermal analysis techniques in ANSYS Workbench"
  • Study "Modeling electric current effects on materials in ANSYS"
  • Look for "Tutorials on thermoelectrical modeling in ANSYS Workbench"
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for mechanical engineers, thermal analysts, and researchers involved in electrical heating applications, particularly those using ANSYS Workbench for simulation and modeling tasks.

Hello,

I have the following problem: I would like, from a tungsten filament which an electric current is imposed, find the temperature emitted from the filament (Joule heating) on ansys workbench.

I have to study a thermoelectrical , but I can not find any tutorial.

Does anyone have examples or tutorial to deal with this problem on workbech?

Thank you in advance

I should have looked up what an ansy workbench was before giving an answer.
An ansy workbench is a simulation program.
Rewrote this to give a sensible answer.

The question is not clear. Do you want to calculate the temperature of a tungsten filament or do you want to measure the watts from a tungsten filament or the temperature of some object near the tungsten filament?
