Ansys PCG Solver
Ansys PCG Solver
(OP)
Hi,
I currently using Ansys 13 APDL with the PCG Solver for a contact analysis. I am running multiple analysis that are writting over each other one after an other. Each time i'm extracting the important information and save them within a .txt file.
My problem is that PCG solver are itterative and i would like to save the maximum number of itterations by the solver for the analysis.(Those informations are usually plotted in the .PCS file) I am currently trying with the following APDL code:
*get,PCG,active,,solu,CGITER
but i always obtain 0. Is there any other way to save the maximum number of itteration that the PCG solver does for solving an analysis.
Thanks
Felix

RE: Ansys PCG Solver
Have you tried adding
set,last
before your *get code in /post1?
When using Workbench environment, program automatically creates a variable (_PCGITER) where is stored the number of iterations done by the PCG solver.

I've tried in both /post1 and /solu and they are both giving me 0.
Thanks for the help
