Q. When user runs a static analysis which includes temperature dependent properties, contact and a nonzero TUNIF value, the following warning is issued:

"Material property EX of material 2 is evaluated at a temperature of 0, which is below the supplied temperature range. Temperature range checking terminates."

Why does ANSYS think the temperature is at zero when TUNIF has been set?
Also, Why does the message disappear if contact is removed from the model?

A. This was a code defect (Ref 24627). The message should not have been issued. It has been corrected for 9.0 release due out in 4th quarter of 2004.
