Hi Ansys community,
I have transient model and had created a parametric design of some parameters available in Mechanical and DesignModeler (e.g., material density, thermal conductivity, body size, etc). I would like to include “Initial Temperature” as input parameter, but the parameter option (square) is not available for this variable (attached image). I do not have experience using APDL!!!
I will really appreciate if someone can explain me how to add Initial Temperature as an input parameter of a parametric design? Thanks in advance.

You can add a commands object under Transient Thermal. In the details you will see 'arg1' , 'arg2' etc that can be parameterized (below picture). You can give the value for 'arg1' in the details. Then in the commands you can use  "IC,ALL,TEMP,ARG1" to specify the initial temperature. In the project view under 'parameter set' you should see this argument available.
