How to put residuals as a variable

mohammad · March 24, 2011, 00:11

Hi every body
In the FAQ section of Ansys cfx about the convergence problem , I found this tip:" Do a test run with the residuals in the result file ...."

Could you please tell me how to put residuals as a variable for later investigation?

Regards

It's in CFX-Pre under "Output Control > Results".

Hi stumpy,
I ticked the "Output Equation Residual " and I chose "ALL".
then, under Monitor Option > Monitor option > Monitor residual >" Full ".

After the run, In CFX-Post, I created a "Contour" and as a " Variable" to be assigned to that Contour , I just found .

is "P-Mass Residual" that variable that FAQ meant? or else what's wrong in the process above.

TNX a lot
