🐞 Description of the bug

When I create a life phase using create_life_phase(), I set the duration to 500 hours. This value is based on multiplying the number of cycles in the thermal event by the duration of the corresponding thermal profile i want to load into the event. However, when I try to add the thermal event, I receive the following error:
ERROR - lifecycle - add_thermal_event - Add thermal event error: Duration must be no greater than the cycle time period (1.0 hr)

I believe this error occurs because a default profile with a duration of 2.33 hours is automatically loaded when the thermal event is created. When multiplied by the 500 cycles, this exceeds the initially set duration of the life phase, resulting in the error.

Is there a way to modify the default profile that gets loaded? If not, could a function be added to allow users to update the properties of a life phase after creation? This would allow setting a higher duration for the life phase initially, which could then be adjusted once the correct profile is loaded.

📝 Steps to reproduce

sherlock.lifecycle.create_life_phase(
project="test",
phase_name="phase",
duration=500,
duration_units="hr",
num_of_cycles=1,
cycle_type="COUNT",
)

This funciton will trigger the error message

sherlock.lifecycle.add_thermal_event(
project="test",
phase_name="phase",
event_name = "event",
num_of_cycles=500,
cycle_type="COUNT",
cycle_state="OPERATING",
)

sherlock.lifecycle.load_thermal_profile(
project="test",
phase_name="phase",
event_name="event",
file_path="profile.dat", # Thermal profile has a duration of 1 hour
)
