Region
Group Reference Lets you apply the report region to a group.For more information, see Group Reference options.
Select Object Lets you select the region of the model.Element Selection Filtering lets you limit your element selection to the FE entity you select from the Filter Type list:Elements lets you select elements of any order, or any combination of elements of different orders.Element Edges lets you select only the edges of 2D elements.Element Faces lets select only the faces of 3D elements.Excluded lets you remove individual entities from within your selected object.
Stacked Smart Selector Methods Opens the Smart Selector Methods dialog box where you can specify a progression of smart selection filters.For more information, see Smart Selector Methods dialog box.
Region Override
Override Region Overrides the region with a non-geometric element.Non-Geometric ElementProcesses and reports heat flow data between the non-geometric element and each specified region in another heat map report, all other elements that are not included in any heat map report, the environments, and everything in the model. Select an existing non-geometric element modeling object from the list, or click Create Modeling Object to create a non-geometric element.
Shell Layers
Apply Report to Specifies on which side of 2D shell elements you want to calculate thermal results. The results are calculated on the following sides of 2D shell elements:Top and BottomTopBottom
