The analysis log is a text report lists the analysis progress table, showing the iterations required to find a solution, where each iteration is a full Fill+Pack analysis.
The analysis log is generated by the Runner Balance analysis.
The Runner balance analysis log begins with a list of the inputs that were set for the analysis, including the specified balance target pressure and mill tolerance.
The progress table beneath shows the Time, Pressure and Section Imbalance at each iteration during the analysis. Decreasing imbalance values indicate that the analysis is converging on a solution.
The runner balance is finished if the maximum iteration limit is reached, or if the time and pressure tolerance are met (as in the example below).
Balance Target Pressure 80.0000 MPa
Mill Tolerance 0.0100 mm
Maximum Iteration Limit 20
Time Convergence Tolerance 5.0000 %
Pressure Convergence Tolerance 5.0000 MPa
Section Convergence Tolerance 0.7000
