Power Inverter without Heat Transfer: Exercise 6—Performing the Simulation
|  Monitoring points must be created before you perform the simulation. |
1. In the Flow Analysis Tree, under Physics select Common.
2. In the Properties panel, Model tab, set values for the options as listed below:
◦ Number of Iterations—500
◦ Time Definition—Steady State Simulation
◦ Result Saving Frequency—500
3. In the
Run group, click
Run to begin the simulation. The default settings are set to
Start from Initial Values and
Steady in the
Run group.
4. In the Info dialog box, click Yes to generate the mesh and continue.
5. Click
XYPlot Panel to view the residuals for the steady simulation.
| The default convergence criterion is 0.001 for steady state simulations. When the residuals for all the variables reduce by 3 orders or the maximum number of iterations is reached, the calculation proceeds to the next time step. |
6. Click OK when the simulation is complete.
