Hello,
I always have used Ansys Classic, however, I had to change to workbench. I can run most of the analysis that I was used to run on Ansys Classic, the electrostactic analysis however, is not shown on environmental map. I could find only the Magnetostatics option (that's the closest...
Thanks for the replys. In fact I thought that split the current in two IGBT`s was better, even for circuit protections. In fact I need this High current values for a short period of time (Time enough to heat up some Plugs).
Thanks for your help!
Thanks ScottyUK,
I haven't considered any IGBT yet, but it sounds a very good choice. 120Amps is defintely a high current, I don`t know if the package can handle that top cuerrent for many cycles. I think the most important thing that I should consider in this case is the heat dissipation, since...
11) Will ANSYS 11.0 work with Windows Vista?
No, V11 will not work with Windows Vista. A service pack is expected which will update V11 to be able to work with Vista. No date has been provided for when the SP is expected.

Thak you very much Doug,
I was killing myself here, I though I`ve already defined the target elements on the active CS, and I couldn`t find this little simple detail.
Thanks again!
Hello,
I'am having some troubles trying to set up a 3D contact analysis of a cylinder and an arc. The contact is not occuring, the contact volume is not interacting with target elements. I think Iam probably not constraining the model correctly. The input file is listed below, if anyone can...
I just finished an APDL code, but it was taking too long to rebuild the nodal model:
!maximum node number
*get,n_max,node,,num,maxd
!temporary array
list_tmp=
*dim,list_tmp,array,n_max,11
!status of selection (masking vector)
*vget,list_tmp(1,1),node,,nsel
!filling array with...
I wonder if it is possible to export the meshed deformed shape resulted from a static analysis (i.e. a displacement analysis) so it can be used as a model for a new static analysis. Note that this is different from a transient analysis.
Thanks
Good afternoon,
I'm trying to plot the PSD input curve (from a PSD table) using PSDGRAPH command. The problem is that the graph displayed doesn't show any data (dot's or solid lines).
I'm using as an example the following commands:
PSDFRQ,1, ,100,400,1200,2500,
PSDVAL,1,.02,.05,.05,.01...
Goodafternoon,
I'm trying to develop e model to extract temperature and strees values by simulating a pulsed laser in a volume. I was wondering if there is a way to remove nodes (the nodes that achieve TEMP values over the Material Melting Point ) from the model at each substep (I don´t think...
Is there anyway to use an incremented variable on the name of a saved image file with APDL? For example, I have a simple loop with i_ as being the increment variable.
i_=1
*DO,i_,1,180,1
/IMAGE,SAVE,i_,bmp
/ANG,1,-1,YS,1
/REP,FAST
i_=i_+1
*ENDDO
However, everytime the saved file is i_...
I was wondering if it's possible to list both Nodes coordinates and their solutions in the same file. I need this because the solution is provided only in a few selected nodes, and the listing of their coordinates lists all nodes selected. So I can't plot any results as a function of X or Y...
Is it possible to use transparent colours on plot results with 3D graphics? I´ve built a 3-D electrostatic model, with my device located in the center of an open air system. Therefore, it´s impossible to see any plot results (such as electric field isosurface) around my device, since I can see...
Well I could get it to work, using axysimetric elements./PREP7
