How To ... ANSYS - Tutorials, Tips and Tricks

 The error message Error: GENERAL-CAR-CDR: invalid argument [1]: improper list means that there is a problem with the scheme code or the UDF (user-defined function) in your case or data file . Some possible solutions are: Save the case and data file and try to reopen it. Reset the Fluent Setup tab and try opening the mesh. Remesh the geometry and reopen in Fluent. Change the material definition from “Solid” to “Fluid” in Design Modeler. Change the transient to steady if you are using evaporation-condensation as the phase interaction mechanism. Check the syntax of your UDF and make sure it follows the new rules in Fluent 6.2.16 or later. I hope this helps you resolve the error.

In today's post I would like to show you how to easily and quickly export data from Report Definitions about your defined monitors in Ansys Fluent. How to export report definitions from Ansys Fluent to spreadsheet

PrePoMax is a freeware pre- and postprocessor for open-source Finite Element Analysis solver CalculiX 1 . It offers a user-friendly GUI and supports many features provided by the CalculiX solver. To model in PrePoMax, you need to follow these general steps: Create or import a geometry using the Geometry menu 2 . Generate a mesh using the Mesh menu 2 . Define the FE model using the Model , Property , Interaction , Initial Condition , and Step menus 2 . Export the input file for CalculiX using the File menu 2 . Run the analysis using the Tools menu 2 . Import the results file and visualize the output using the View menu 2 . You can find more detailed instructions and examples in the PrePoMax documentation 1 and video tutorials 1 . I hope this helps you get started with PrePoMax. 😊 The official PrePoMax website 1 has a section on documentation, where you can download the PrePoMax manual in PDF format. The manual covers the basic features and workflow of PrePoMax, as well as some

Supports are used to represent parts that are not present in the model but are interacting with it. Supports help truncate the domain, which helps in efficiently obtaining numerically accurate results without modeling parts of the geometry that are not of primary interest. There are different types of support available, among which you need to choose the appropriate one for your analysis. Here are some of the common types of supports and their explanations: - **Fixed Support**: This type of support constrains all the degrees of freedom of the selected entity (body, face, or edge). It means that the entity cannot move or rotate in any direction. Fixed support is equivalent to applying zero displacement to all directions. Fixed support is useful for modeling rigid connections or supports that do not allow any movement. For example, you can use fixed support to model a bolted joint or a clamped beam. - **Displacement Support**: This type of support specifies a zero or non-zero displacemen
