Subject: Re: THERM Why does Elastic Modulus need to be defined?

Brian,
ANSYS 5.7 does not require the Modulus be defined for a heat transfer run.
This is the same as prior ANSYS releases. The Modulus is required for a
Thermal Stress solution, however. If you are unable to run, you need to
check your input file or your database.
