01. How to model thermal gradient along a pipe while using AutoPIPE?
Answer:
This is akin to modeling like FEA; insert a number of short run points and vary the temperature a small amount in each run of pipe.
Step #1: Build the piping system in AutoPIPE
Step #2: D etermine what section of pipe is to have the thermal…

Is there a tutorial on processing a project that contains ortho and thermal images?
I can find tutorials on processing these types of projects using Pix4D and Drone Deploy but not ContextCapture. Might be worth posting the instructions\tutorial here.
Thanks

PLAXIS 3D Thermal Flow
Dear PLAXIS Team,
i need to perform some calculations considering the thermal flow within PLAXIS 3D. According to the PLAXIS 3D Manual, this should be possible with at least an ADV licence.
Unfortunately i cannot find any options to use these features…
Extract temperature values from model with photos taken by Zenmuse XT2 IR camera
I just made a 3D mesh from images captured by XT2 Zenmuse Radiometric thermal camera. Is there a way to extract the temperature value of each pixel in the model? FYI, the photos are JPEG-R, they contain temperature value at each pixel.

We're currently using Plaxis2D with its PaxFlow and Thermal Modules to simulate the behaviour of liquid soil as a filling material for buried power lines. In our case we got field data from a ton of sensors recording the actual soil-behaviour…
About a curved thermal boundary
Hi, I am currently try to use the PLAXIS Thermal 2D to build a thermal boundary for the tunnel interface.
However, it seems like the Polycurve inside PLAXIS is not able to create a thermal boundary for it.
Do you know if there is any other option…
Any benefit to processing in phases (adding pictures)?
Is there any benefit to processing one set of pictures then adding more pictures and processing again? does it keep the original main component and add to it or does it start over completely?
