Get Thermal Values Example (C#)

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation as an add-in
//    (in SOLIDWORKS, click Tools > Add-ins > SOLIDWORKS Simulation).
// 2. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation primary interop assembly as
//    a reference (in the IDE's Project Explorer, right-click
//    the project name, click Add Reference, click the Browse tab,
//    navigate to install_dir\api\redist\CLR2,
//    click SolidWorks.Interop.cosworks.dll, and click OK).
// 3. Ensure that the specified model exists.
// 4. Modify the path to solidworks materials.sldmat if needed.
// 5. Uncomment the thermal method whose return values you want to see.
// 6. Open the Immediate window.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1.  Opens document.
// 2.  Creates Thermal_One study.
// 3.  Applies user-defined and SOLIDWORKS materials to components.
// 4.  Gets objects by persistent reference and populates input arrays.
// 5.  Sets thermal study options.
// 6.  Assigns initial temperatures to assembly components.
// 7.  Adds heat power and convection to assembly components.
// 8.  Assigns thermostat location and the temperature range.
// 9.  Meshes the assembly.
// 10. Analyzes the study.
// 11. Prints thermal values at solution step 60 to the Immediate window.
//
// NOTES:
//  * To get persistent reference identifiers (PIDs) for model selections,
//    use pidcollector.exe or IModelDocExtension::GetPersistReference3.
//  * Solving this study can take some time. Examine the Immediate window
//    to monitor the macro's progress. Done! indicates that the macro
//    has finished.
//  * Because this assembly document is used by a SOLIDWORKS Simulation
//    online tutorial, do not save any changes.
