Which software application published by MSC Software has a feature/module called PA_PTHERMAL? What is PA_PTHERMAL?

The software application published by MSC Software that features the module called PA_PTHERMAL is **MSC Nastran**. PA_PTHERMAL stands for "Parametric Analysis of Thermal Systems" and is used for conducting thermal analysis in engineering simulations. PA_PTHERMAL allows users to perform thermal analysis in a finite element model to evaluate the temperature distribution, heat flow, and thermal equilibrium in various systems. It is useful for engineers and designers to assess thermal performance in applications such as electronics cooling, thermal management in mechanical systems, and other scenarios where temperature influences the operational efficiency and safety of products. This module can incorporate both steady-state and transient thermal analysis, and it can be integrated with other analysis types offered by MSC Nastran for comprehensive assessments of multidisciplinary designs.
