I am a new Ansys User and am solving following axis symmetric problem:
Two cylinders (un equal diameter) at different temperatures come in contact at time t=0 and they remain in contact. I am interested in studying how the temperature varies with time at various locations. I have done this without any contact resistance between them. I went through the portion of Ansys manual which describes the contact elements but I am not very clear about how I can implement it. I think I should use contact48. How and what real constants should be used? And which entities should the real constants should apply to? I am using APDL. Please let me know if you have a simple example file which might help me.
