SID |
Load set identification number. No default (Integer > 0) |
Q0 |
Heat flux into element. Is positive for heat input. No default (Real) |

CHBDYE surface element identification numbers. With alternate format using “THRU” EID2 > EID1. No default (Integer ≠ 0) |
1. | QBDY1 entries must be selected with the Case Control command LOAD=SID in order to be used in static analysis. The total power into an element is given by the equation: |
Pin = (Effective_Area) * Q0
2. | This card is represented as a flux load in HyperMesh. |
