SPECIFIC HEAT: Define specific heat.
This option is used to specify a material’s specific heat.
Products: ABAQUS/Standard ABAQUS/Explicit
Type: Model data
Level: Model

“Specific heat,” Section 20.2.3 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual
Optional parameter:
DEPENDENCIES
Set this param eter equal to the number of field variables included in the definition of specific
heat. If this parameter is om itted, it is assumed that the specific heat is constant or depends
only on temperature. See “Specifying field variable dependence” in “Material data definition,”
Section 16.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, for more information.
Data lines to specify a material’s specific heat:
First line:
1. Specific heat per unit mass. (Units of JM
−1 −1
.)
2. Temperature.
3. First field variable.
4. Second field variable.
5. Etc., up to six field variables.
Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than six):
1. Seventh field variable.
2. Etc., up to eight field variables per line.
Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessar y to define the specific heat as a function of temperature
and other predefined field var iables.
